That’s Chutzpah!
This morning I heard part of Bush’s eulogy for President Ford.
‘He stepped into the most divisive period this nation has ever known.’

I have a couple of thoughts on what he said:
1] Again, even with someone to write his speech for him, Bush is a little short in the history department.
The most divisive? Huh-uh. Remember the Civil War? Remember the Reconstruction? Remember the lynchings and the fire hoses and the snarling dogs during the struggles of our minorities for their Civil Rights?
and 2] The absolute gall of this **ahem** president—talking about divisive periods in our nation’s history. Just what does he think HE has created, here?

I didn't hear it. I listened to Biden's 12/13 speech instead. I agree and think Bush will be remembered as the Great Divider.
