(3,491 posts)for him at deaths door.
The guy is and always has been one evil bastard.
Get a copy of "Family Of Secrets" by Russ Baker, read it and then tell me you feel sorry for good old Poppy!

(6,843 posts)He refused to wipe out Hussein's army on the road to death out of Baghdad. He referred to Reagan's Laffer curve as "Vodoo Economics" , he tore up his NRA card, and he raised taxes on the wealthy. In today's terms, George H.W. is a Democrat.

(89,240 posts)just imagine looking back all those years you lived. the changes in time.
i wonder if looking back to when you were a child or even young adult would feel like a long time ago or closer.

(30,947 posts)I plan on living at least another 10 years. Fortunately, all my aunts and my grandmother on my mother's side lived into their 80s. All the men died in their 50s. My mother died at 78. She had lung cancer.

(6,843 posts)He still gets around pretty good considering his age. As far as Republicans go, he is probably the last one that had some semblance of sanity to hold office in a long time.
cynatnite
(31,011 posts)He seems senile.
There will be a lot of haters here and that's okay. It's probably deserved, but as a human being I do feel bad for him. The aging process has taken a horrible toll on him.

After all he did pass out and throw up on the lap of someone when the Jersey Shore Crew were in diapers.

(290 posts)Sometimes what goes around comes around. To give up integrity, truth & honesty, and character just to win this election would deserve all the debacles going on at the RNC.
If Mitt Romney can't lead his party, how can he lead the country? So, I don't feel bad for him

(1,741 posts)1. Being an evil person does not make you age more quickly, and aging quickly does not mean you were a bad person. My mother is the same age as my father-in-law but seems older because of health problems.
2. It is possible to feel sympathy and compassion even for a bad person. I wouldn't think less of someone who couldn't do it, but I also don't think less of someone who does.

(25,415 posts)88 is really getting up there plus he has Parkinson's. I dislike many of his policies but know he just looks like a frail old man, just like Reagan did at the end. Age gets you in the end no matter how you lived your life, doesn't it?
