Thursday I was on a high with all the excellent media coverage of Mueller's progress in ridding our country of this vile President...one breaking story following another... we had waited for this, it seems forever....thrilling....alas, I was spoiled...

It galls me to see that the next how many days are gonna be wall to wall coverage of an ex Republican president who did nothing to improve peoples' lives. Voodoo economics carried on from Reagan...hurting us for 40 years.

I believe this is the true definition of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. Gotta be polite and conform..and give this Republican accolades..

1. Don't fret. The trumpquake will explode!! And still people die.

A former presidents death is newsworthy.

Mueller is still working!!

[Taraman]

2. I needed a break from the news anyway.

Wouldn't want to get obsessed or anything.

[Kaleva]

3. Mueller isn't distracted. Others may be but not him and his team.

Another thing that may be a plus is that Trump and the WH are now going to be distracted by the death of George H. W. Bush.

4. Think of it as GHWB

Running out the clock till Congress goes on vacation

9. Good point n/t

5. I understand

It has been an excruciatingly coarse immersion in surrealist theatre since he descended from his gilded tower three years ago to announce his inevitable inheritance to the throne of our social media culture. I have been seething at he, his myriad cronie enablers, and the 25% of my fellow countrymen that have and will blindly support this protracted abomination to every ethical and democratic principal this country supposedly stands for. For myself and those similarly afflicted, every shoe that has dropped for the last two years has elicited hopes of the quickening endgame, and the removal of this disgrace from the Oval Office. So yesterday was like a shot in the arm, and the junkie craving for the demise of 45 has been followed by the depressive and dejected cravings of today's extended come-down. Sucks. Cheers!

6. Recommended.

It is the white-washing of history, and it contributes to making the electorate less well informed.

And FOX needs no help from us in making Bush Sr. seem like a saint.

8. On the bright side the MSM will use Trump as a foil for HW Bush The Good.

I'll roll with it for a week.

[AdamGG]

13. Yes, the positive attributes that they're heaping on Bush are all things that Trump glaringly lacks

[sagesnow]

7. Turn him off.

[PubliusEnigma]

10. Mueller doesn't brake for Politics.

[burrowowl]

11. Not only did he not improve people's lives

he was behind Iran-Contra (Raygun was out of it with Alzheimer's) during which 200 to 250,000 Guatemalan native people were massacred! I do not like the war criminal and the crimes he committed to humanity at all!

[elmac]

12. I remember I got a pay raise

but read my lips bush raised taxes on workers and obliterated my raise soon after.

[ooky]

14. If something really good breaks it will get through.

In the meantime its an opportunity to enjoy some good movies or whatever else you enjoy other than politics.

[BannonsLiver]

15. I don't think Mueller will be dropping the big bombs until after Jan. 3 anyway

He wants a congressional backstop.

[cynatnite]

16. I don't mind a few days of remembering him, no matter what anyone thinks...

It'll be back to business as usual before you know it and the media will be nonstop Mueller and how many different ways tRump can embarrass himself and us on a daily basis.

Perhaps get away from politics for the next few days. It will pass.

17. But he wore socks

With books on them. What's more relevant than that!?

FWIW I have worn WAY cuter socks than those that NO ONE even noticed.

18. Don't forget the Iranian airliner

Elder bush refused to apologize for shooting down an Iranian airliner.
