Sick Puppy portrait of George Herbert Walker “Poppy” “Popeye” Bush*
If you endured the “prudent” George Herbert Walker Bush debacle during 1989-1993, then you know why his spawn, “W” Bush, was an even more devastating u-turn for the country. But unlike W, at least George senior was skillful enough to capitalize on his daddy’s connections, and after enrolling in a “special program” at Yale, he graduated in a mere two and half years, moved to west Texas, and co-founded the “Zapata Oil Company”— which specialized in off-shore drill baby drilling.
He was a millionaire oil man by the time he became “interested” in politics, and like most entitled people felt no need to pay his dues working up the political ladder. He ran for Senator in 1964, but that was back when Texas Democrats had scrotums, and he was promptly exposed as a Right Wing extremist and lost his ass.
But the lust for power was strong in his wife Barbara, and lowering his sites a bit, he ran for the House of Representatives, and stomped some hapless turd democrat to become the first Republican to represent Houston in Congress. He quickly distinguished himself by not supporting the 1964 Civil Rights Act. And if you really want to know any more about this douche’s history, I suggest you seek out a good therapist.
The entire Bush family excels in irony, and old crazy-eye Herbert Walker can cough it up with the best of them. So hardly anyone was shocked when the douche that introduced Lee Atwater and Roger Ailles to the American people condemned Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow for having caused the deterioration of the political dialogue in the U.S. That’s why he opened his pie hole the other day:

Yeah, most Republican ex-president douche bags have too much golf to play to bother with politics once they’ve had their turn pillaging the treasury. But Herb Walker is faced with the monumental task of trying to rehab the Bush family reputation, after W’s eight-year clusterphuque dump. So the next time you hear Bush senior opine about the sorry state of political dialogue, just smile knowingly and send him an email saying, Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
Multi-generational malfeasants with dirty little fingers in all sorts of pies – but who, when inconveniently pressed by externalized forces, deny any sort of wrongdoing and decry the incivility of it all.
Allow me to review a moment: Samuel Bush, Baruch’s hand-picked government procurer of weapons contracts during WW 1 and Remington Arms’ best friend in the U.S. Government (until the National Archives records were destroyed to ‘save space’)…Prescott Bush, U.S. senator and active participant in treasonous activities with the Nazis even after American involvement in WW 2…George H.W. Bush, the puppeteer’s hand up Reagan’s colon and the official door-slammer on Iran-Contra, (yet another association with the words ‘Bush’ and ‘treason’)…and all his offspring, and all their crimes committed against the American public and the world in the name of noblesse oblige and their fattened personal accounts.
If Poppy thinks history will judge his bloodline kindly, he’s been skydiving without a helmet too often. Perhaps next time he’ll forego the parachute also.

Mwahahaha! So true, nonnie; but even wilde would puke up his dinner to see how these modern dorian greys flatter themselves, while inside they are filled with the filth of extortion, excesses, and deception. And that’s the picture they’ll die with.
just goes to reinforce what a classless clan the bushes really are. was he this upset when max cleland was being called a coward? did he say a word back then about how uncivil people are?
i think your version of poppy is much more realistic than the original, mh. it’s got a whole dorian gray vibe goin’ on. 😉
