Former President George H.W. Bush feels that the tone of the national discourse lacks civility. “I don’t like it,” Bush told CBS. “The cables (TV) have a lot to do with it.” Bush said he believes Obama was “entitled to civil treatment” when it comes to his critics. But it was not just those on the right, who presumably make up a majority of Obama’s critics, that Bush felt were responsible for the angry tone. The left was guilty as well. Singling out MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann, Bush said, “the way they treat my son and anyone who’s opposed to their point of view is just horrible.” Maddow and Olbermann, he added, are “sick puppies.”

So cute, love the picture! Bush is dead right about the crap Obama is getting but his son deserves all he gets and a lot more!
patriot~ Amen!
Cute little sick puppies, get well soon and dish some more crap out.
Holte~ I'm sure there's lots more coming; thank goodness for Rachel and Keith.
I kind of agree with Bush I. But I don't think the media got on to W too early--at first people gave him a lot of slack, but in time he earned our ire.
sage~ Earned our ire, indeed, when he got us into Iraq.
