looking at george w. bush's immediate response to 9/11 which was really quite quite inspiring story. what do you think of his post-president? well, his second one i do is his work with aids in africa. he saved a lot of lives working with all sorts of people, you know, bono and you know all the it's real life saved that george w bush very getting the money there to fight you know that campaign against aids and africa. he didn't have to do that. it wasn't constituent politics it that i think came out of his christianity. his time in dallas, you know, he's involved the library. there's well-built southern methodist university runs it well i went and spoke there not long ago to a group. it's very well integrated with the university and that's a hot school now kids want to go to southern methodist university in george w. bush's love george and laura are adored in dallas. i can't you can't put words of how much love there is towards them as a couple they do a lot of local focus on local groups. he does his wounded war

that they thought trump is racist and george w. bush not, and bush had been able to, the iraq war, i mean we don't talk about it much. i think rumsfeld and cheney are the ones demonized in history and george w. bush is being able to emerge fairly well. jean smith, the biographer. >> jean edward smith. >> he wrote a very critical book, first whack at the bush presidency, very well-researched antibush take, i think he was trying to be objective and writes, i don't think a democrat thinks eisenhower is this big person and so yet there hasn't been a biographer of bush, george w. that's maybe filled in all the blanks of this period. >> how much time have you spent around bill clinton? >> quite a bit. >> how, where? >> hoffsteader university had me run the conference, you know, still does these big presidential conferences where all the players from the administration come so i ran the, you know, working with their cultural center there and friends of mine at hoffster but i ran the bill clinton one. >> when? >> i can't remember the year now b

he gave them all a free pass george w bush. they're all going to be rehabilitated. they're all going to be treated as great statesman. one day. i mean, they gave president obama a nobel prize for not being george w bush. the question, of course, the world that dancing around with or avoiding as does it work as torture work doesn't work. people that have information that are part of an underground apparatus, a terrorist organization at revolution or organization accomplished organization. whatever organized form of collective alan chip i b, they want right now. and the people that you pick up that are innocence. yes. you tell them to pieces, you'll destroy them, you will ruin them. i think that a few of the people that passed passed through my hands as an interrogator did have intelligence. but most the vast majority of the people that i dealt with work just being picked up because they were males of military age and they were just get swept up. and these raves, i don't think torture is always being used as a method to gain information or, or confessions. it's often j

term president, you have to be bill clinton, you have to beat barack obama, you have to beat george w. bushorge w bush didn't have time to rebound from his numbers so he left after second term and went to a shed and started painting beautiful portraits. that's what people should do. they should reflect. [inaudible] kennedy: because of bill clinton's transformational ability and he was young and crazy and a political animal. the 90s were awesome. joe biden, i want to talk with you more on this so maybe we will do a podcast because you and i talk about this, there are areas where you and i are not far apart and i think you could make that interesting. olivia, if people are so mad at republicans and democrats and don't want to be terrorists by white men, why aren't libertarians offering political solutions? >> i think the libertarian does have some issues and a lot of issues but overall the best choice between all three parties, there's a two-party duopoly, people would disagree but what's really holding them back is no fault of their own, i think if they are given a fair chance on the debate

a and to know where it moves in the day that george w. bush dies and was standing there and then rubbing his feet. and that has different than the modern times. and not the political animal in texas. and then he has been brought toan washington. and then brought into the white house. and to call it the sh it detector. is that a good description? and his cousin said and that became the cover of time magazine. and the smooth fixer and then incredibly hard-nosed. and the very partisan things that he a did. and then to be ultracompetitive. that almost a compulsive thing. and then proclaiming himself and that's part of his wiring. and then there was a route to success that goes through making deals. and that george w. bush was president democrats controlled at least one house of congress. and baker understood that dealmaking and then dealing with soviets that margaret thatcher was as big of an obstacle and then is at the moment? and then they say we need jim baker they are just fundamentally different than they were at that time. and then to be sma

she george w bush. whom she told me was the worst present may a president who made the worst mistake in american history, which is saying a lot which is the iraq war. she did not have a high view of george w bush in his presidency and even though it cost her members to push to the legislation. she did it because she the because the alternative just looked to him uh, tell us she took on a particularly like iconic status during the trump years and walking out the you know, the orange coat with the big collar of shredding out of the of the white house to the cameras there. do you think that she had trump's number because she'd encountered him and she'd seem in him in baltimore. she'd seen him and san francisco politics. she'd encountered people like him before. well, donald trump's very distinctive figure are there. i mean, there are people i'm not sure i'd know a lot of people who are like don't even jersey and he's like everybody you go before land. he's like everybody knows that if you grew up in jersey

but here it is.t is, what is george w. bush and michelle obama have in common and their post white house lives? think about it. ur tweet g me your guesses at ingram mangler. we're going to see if you get to the right answer at the bottom of the show. and i said bottom of the show for a reason. but next , jay divans just won the endorsement of donald trump in the ohio senate primary. he's here next to respond to that . plus, we're going to get his reaction to the most noxious internet personality around say they're. he this is iowa. wede just haven't been properly introduced. say hello to a place whereus rolling hills meets global where our field inside and outwa are always growing. and where started. this is iowaa. so when are you going to be a parents and grandparents? do your kids understand the dangers of socialism and how they can help? their schools will never teach them. but mike huckabee wants to help by sending the kids guide to fighting socialism free for a limited time. this important guest will help kids learn why so

yeah george w bush. both of them did a lot of preparatory work and biden's case obviously to get to 206 people in in the white house. it was a lot of personnel work than a decision to focus on presidential appointees who did not require senate confirmation. he also worked on a developing information and strategies on issues that may came up. such as the date went under a heading of unconventional challenges what an unconventional challenges. could they possibly face and then assigning people to work on those challenges flesh them out and then develop mitigating strategies. so the preparatory work early is not just mandated by the government. it's also good practice by the candidates. that's tremendously helpful. i mean my read on your really interesting paper martha, is that the candidates and the government have put so much more? resources and attention into transitions in this 21st century and yet the transitions have for the most part been less smooth. which i think is a paradox that is worth explorin

these countries were targeted by the george h w bush, or george w bush, the senior vice president of ronald reagan and bribed with hundreds of millions of dollars. and these monies were given the countries in exchange for their acquiescence and their submission to american military and economic and political objectives. no ring of nato military bases is being formed around russia. the u. s. and nato have over 600 military base as well to wide. russia has just 18, but the west still claims that russia has aggressive intent by turning this russians. the soviets, and to this dangerous bo, you man that wants to take over the world. that was a conscious strategy to create this image of the soviets. as out for world conquest, which was not the case, then for now. ah, nato should have died, but they will give it meaning. it is about infected, created by nato native business machine, because you must remember, if nato were disbanded, shareholders in the united states and elsewhere in lodge obs companies would lose millions and millions. they'd only have one yacht instead of 2 yards each ther

back, for example, i remember i was watching a speech michael dukakis made when bob dole and george w. bushere running for the republican nomination, and i was listening to him specifically, and he started the speech and said, you know, bob dole says that george h.w. bush isn't much of a leader, george h.w. bush says bob dole isn't much of a lee arer, well, time i actually agree with both of them. i think you can only find that through c-span, so i would not have had book had it not been for c-span, so i thought it was appropriate to dedicate it to c-span. >> host: my favorite part of watching c-span is during the senate vote you get to see all the interactions on the senate floor. that's a lot of fun to watch. i spend hours watching that, i'm afraid. in the great american political trivia challenge you have a whole section on political insults. >> guest: yes. >> host: why did you include that? >> guest: because i just find them absolutely fast fascinating. politicians are very good in terms of being sometimes very creative in the way that they insult people. i find that fascinating. there'

many of my generation recall us president george w bush and john f. kennedy. they are american imperialists. we were raised up on these principles, that american imperialism is the enemy of peoples, eager to absorb their wealth. democrats and republicans does a chinese proverb that says, said, doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white as long as it catches mice with a curbside a since we are the victim of conspiracy against the middle east. america biased nature is an occupying country that seeks to extend its improves to the region and the middle east as a whole. as for the bushes, we did not wish for either the father or son to rule short, as you know, their purposes were at all times to destroy the middle east, iraq and syria, as well as to eliminate al goals, peoples and societies. once we had a brave raw, he journalist who embodied heroism through pen and media, he threw his shoes so called american president, the juggle george w bush in a joint press conference with prime minister muriel malachi. well, i'm recreating the same event by pelting came t
