Former first lady Laura Bush said while her husband, George W. Bush, does not think it’s appropriate for a former president to criticize his successor, she understands why former Vice President Dick Cheney has.
“That’s his right as a citizen of the U.S., and I think he also feels obligated and so I understand why he wants to speak out,” Bush said in an interview with ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
“On the other hand George feels like as a former president that he owes President Obama his silence on issues and that there’s no reason to second guess any decisions he makes.”
*****************************
“Dick told my Bush that he would get Americans to accept torture by going on every TV news show until the American public would get sick and tired of listening to him and give in. He said that Dick and George would never go to prison. My Bush would probably stick his foot in his mouth if he tried to do the same.” – Official Protective Laura Souse
