"Prescott S. Bush Jr., brother to one U.S. president and uncle to another, has died at age 87.

A family statement says Bush died Wednesday in Hingham, Mass., after a long illness. He was brother of former President George H.W. Bush and the uncle of former President George W. Bush.

Bush grew up in Greenwich, Conn., and later returned to live there. He attended Phillips Academy in Andover and Yale University.

The retired insurance executive was active in Connecticut politics as an adviser, campaign manager and fundraiser. In 1982 he was briefly a candidate for the U.S. Senate seat his father, Prescott Bush, held for two terms."

We continue to be surprised, because we don't have that kind of hate....

        - Geographic region or place of origin.
        - Disability (mental or physical).
        - Weight or other physical characteristics.

Not I, I am never surprised when they react like this. And it is not because I am full of hate I just know DUmmies.

[AllosaursRus]

It just baffles me! I could never, in good conscience, say these things about one of theirs, even though I believe they are a threat to my country!

When the Good Lord calls Dick Cheney home, I am going to avoid the DUmp altogether, even if someone brings a thread over here.  Sometimes too much is too much. 

RIP, Mr. Prescott Bush.
