george w. bush did not hide it in a conversation with vovan and lexus.is the main goal of the national battalions in ukraine and your mission is to destroy as many russian troops as possible question tom will you continue to receive the necessary assistance? i certainly hope so, and it is very important for the united states to continue to lead this movement and provide you with the necessary support, agreed. with the bush jr. and about what he remembered by the decision to send troops to iraq, then washington wanted to use the so-called powell test tube as a pretext for the invasion, it was demonstrated to the security council and called a weapon of mass destruction, which is produced in factories in iraq, the pranksters focused on the facial expressions of bush jr., when he heard such an uncomfortable question addressed to him. history with a test tube. colin powell. here he is using it now. is this some propaganda or was it a big plan to convince the democrats. uh, d-dwak you live too much in the past, my friend, just before the pranksters aired today

jean baker has the first essay, but he knows but george h. w. bush almost as well as george h. w. bush. he sets the stage for what we have throughout the rest of the chapters. >> andrew? >> a couple of stories that tell you a lot about bush himself. bush was taught by his mother and his father not to use the word i if he could possibly avoid it. it's hard to do that if you are a politician. if you watch, you listen, look at the stuff that he has written. memos as president and speeches, he doesn't use the word. because he said it is too egotistical and egocentric. he came back from a baseball game when he was in high school. he hit a home run and they won the game as a result of it. he ran in and told his mother, his mother said, that's very nice george. she said, that's very nice, george. how did the team do? he asked, don't you care about the home run? and she said, i care about how the team did. not how you did. he repeated that story many times. there was an auditorium in -- near three buildings of the bush school, library, and the conference center. you came and spoke there at

when gorbachev was in power for four years, i believe, before george h. w. bush became president of george h. w. bush allowed gorbachev to deal with the reality that the berlin wall came down and that germany should be reunified, without being part of the soviet umbrella. in that made a huge difference for everything else that has taken place since then. >> you asked a question, mark. or the questioner asked. how things would have been different if ross perot had one and george bush had a second -- i agree with andy, i think he would've had a second term. one of the things that people don't realize is that all parties are coalitions. and part of the republican party has been, for 100 years, been a sort of isolationist wing of the party in rural areas of the south and the midwest. particularly, they're not interested in or supportive of world war ii. patrick buchanan, who ran against george bush in the prime area 1988, wrote a book and said we should not have entered world war ii. if you can imagine. i can't imagine anyone saying that. but there is an element of t

that is what george w. bush's mother thought about abortion. when george w. bush became president, he was even more strongly opposed to roe v. wade than his father had been. if you voted for george h. w. bush in 1988, thinking he wasn't serious about overturning roe v. wade, you bet wrong. clarence thomas is the only legacy of the first bush presidency. and without clarence thomas's vote, roe v. wade is would not be overturned. if you voted for george w. bush, you voted for overturning roe v. wade. he made that very, very clear. and if you didn't vote in 2000, because you thought there wasn't a big difference between bush and gore, then you did your part to overturn roe v. wade. george w. bush appointed justice alito, the author of the draft opinion overturning roe v. wade. four of the five justices who are overturning roe v. wade were appointed by republican presidents who came in second with the voters in this country but managed to win the electoral college. and so, the minority of voters who delivered george w. bush to the white house and donald trump to t

and senior government role under three us presidents including white house chief of staff to george w. bush, and secretary to george h w bush. we have executive director of fiscal institute of international affairs. he has been it distinguished professor on diplomacy at georgetown, vice president of worldvision, a veteran who served in the gulf war, us special envoy to the darfur process and most especially administer of international development. today they have edited and produced transforming our world, george h w bush and american foreign policy, a collection of essays from well-known foreign-policy practitioners who participated in unfolding international events in the administration. i to make sure everyone knows we will have time to take some audience questions near the end of the program. if you have questions please submit them to event@wilsoncenter.org. please include your name and affiliation. let me get things going. for me, a recurring theme in this book even though it was written by 20 authors in terms of the essays is good fortune. and ocean that george w. bush was uniquely q

when a bad example is contagious george w. bush adopted the experience of biden and made a mistake in his speech during a speech to supporters at the southern throwing university of dallas, the former us president announced the invasion of iraq , implying ukraine, by the way, a reservation that is not groundless, it was george w. bush who led the invasion of iraq in 2003, which was called cruel and unjustified the american intervention then began after the announcement that the authorities of the middle eastern country had weapons of mass destruction, later it turned out that there was no evidence of this. now bush tried to use these adjectives in relation to the military operation in ukraine, but failed. i had to get out of the situation. the decision of one person to launch a completely unjustified and brutal invasion of iraq i mean ukraine iraq too i am 75 splits and hatred is what elon mask called the democratic party in his disappointment and change political views, the billionaire wrote on his twitter account that he had prev

george w. bush, just in two decades, we've moved from george w. bush to greg abbott, vastly different political parties today, and that's where we are. greg abbott knows that if you want to run for president, which odds are that he does, he's trying to make cultural issues -- he thinks he has this election, one he's moving on to the next election when she wants to one in, because it's president of the united states. >> victoria defrancesco in matthew dowd, thanks for spending some time with us. coming, up our next guest is western oil -- we're gonna ask historian ruth band gap, if a new plan to phase out russian oil is too little too late, when the 11th hour continues. since i left for college, my dad has gotten back into some of his old hobbies. and now he's taking trulicity, and it looks like he's gotten into some new healthier habits, too. what changes are you making for your type 2 diabetes? maybe it's time to try trulicity. it's proven to help lower a1c. it can help you lose up to 10 pounds. and it's only taken once a week, so it can fit into

that's why it suits george w. bushis is the preparation for that mission to kill russian soldiers. you know, firstly, i want to say that i admire the work of ivan and lexus. and i don’t understand at all how the government in the west can still be led to divorce them. that is it what you need to be in general, well, how much you need to be, probably confident in yourself and understand that there is nothing at all with them. yes, after hundreds of cases, that is, well, well done guys. you do your job just superbly clean after a pure heartfelt confession of another heartfelt confession. bush , i want to say that putin has no questions. there is a connection, well done putin, because if it weren’t for putin and the start of a special operation, then everything would end very badly for our territory and we didn’t allow it very sadly a bloody war on our territory due to the fact that the special operation began on time, including on the territory of our country. therefore, there can be only one statement of fact, and that'

thank you and have a good :: john mcconaughey work for george w. bush. was supposed to be or had a comic that kept him up in d.c. we will tells many of his stories as we can remember, quite a few of them. my hope is used half this time to talk about questions that i have got for these two. and then will spend the other half taking any questions you have. this when they happy to go if the whole session is being a presidential speech writers exactly think it would be on west ring. that is it. [laughter] i'm kidding it is much more like deep. [laughter] so this is a presidential ideas festival. i'll set up with a question for these two about the relationship about ideas and speeches. sometimes what comes off as an idea ends up in a speech but sometimes a speechwriting process starts before you have the idea. so just curious, what do you think about that process and how an idea becomes a speech? >> in a weird way, as speech writers were not coming up with the ideas for their much smarter people in the building for developing those ideas. and away at these id

s. president george w bush. the instigator of the invasion of iraq, of course, appears to have accidentally admitted how in justified his options were mistaken of iraq, excuse me, for ukraine during a speech in dallas. while some have suggested us that was purely bushes, conscience speaking, human rights watch has referred to it as the quotes of freud in slip of the century . the decision of one man to launch a holy, unjustified, and brutal invasion of iraq. i mean of ukraine or rack. i mean, the ukraine iraq to anyway 75, both shoes, 2003 invasion of iraq cost approximately 200000 lives and ruined the countries economy for the blue put down to his age. well, earlier we spoke with international law professor front, this boyle, who participated in a tried in qual, uh, pool over legit war crimes committed by us troops in iraq on george w bush's orders boil, says the former us president should be in prison for what he did what cern's me is, so the audience laughing about it. and if you hear us mainstream new sweeti

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 tap, dancing around 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 will 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 of 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 raids, i don't think torture is always being used as a method to gain information or, or confessions. it's ofte

george w. bush, mr. president, we are the leaders of the three republics of belarus, ukraine and russia , stating that negotiations on a new union treaty have reached an impasse, we are aware of the objective reasons why independent states became a reality . george w. bush, sr. all over the world, because the only power that was able to contain the united states fell apart itself and this policy has been going on since 1991. at the us has established hegemony around the world and it has been proclaimed by the politicians. as our right. we are independent people. we are an exceptional nation. we have the right and opportunity to establish power over the whole world. was very short in the ninety-ninth , when the americans hit yugoslavia, and then the russian elite and the desire to follow in the american world also crumble, because to imagine. for everything is more dangerous, now politicians do not respect each other, they do not respect anyone and never, perhaps that is why the world is splitting in

how did we get from george washington to george w. bush? how do we get from washington to barack obama? how do we get from george washington to donald trump? now, one of the striking things is that, if you go from george washington two most presidents before the current president, you see a, kind of, when your progression. now, some people would think that it's a decline, that the curve slips down. in fact, this question -- this comparison between the first president and the current president goes all the way back to the second president. presidents always look better in the rearview mirror then they do when they are right front and center. part of this is, that we tend to, i don't know, we tend to forget the failures, and remember the successes. that's part of it. the other thing is, that presidents are usually pretty talented people. and so, they usually have a lot of positive things that can be said about them. but while they are president, typically the other party, or sometimes factions with their own party, have an incentive to tell yo

let's see biolaboratories in the us yes, and your questions to george w. bush.u , we were able to preserve a large legacy of uh in ukraine, for example, teodos, biolaboratories that were funded by the us in our country. it the pentagon program remember e-emba - it is in the post-soviet space that the pentagon finances a lot of biological laboratories. and we managed to evacuate them now to a safe place, so the russian russians didn't get anything from those labs. well, russia has been proving the existence of these biolaboratories for a very long time, and there have been worldwide disputes about this. and you just called directly and asked, well, yes, i understand everything was smart smart is good that he said that was uh smart. eh, shang-e smart things to do so that the russians don't get the white lab. yes, he did not call zelensky smart. he said that to hide these traces. yes, this is a very smart thing. in general, in the course of the conversation, george was nervous; he had a certain movement of his hands ; he still aroused suspicions, but you still, and

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
