From former President George W. Bush’s Facebook page, on the passing of Miss Beazley:
This weekend our beloved dog, Miss Beazley, was put to rest after a battle with lymphoma. She was a source of joy during our time in Washington and in Dallas. She was a close companion to her blood relative, Barney. And even though he received all the attention, Beazley never held a grudge against him. She was a guardian to our cats, Bob and Bernadette, who — like Laura and I — will miss her.
Bush Senior was a sane old WASP who had his flaws but did a competent job as President. Dubya led us into the mire of death, hate, and debt. He broke our country and Obama hasn’t been able to fix it.
Both Bush elder and son were heartfelt presidents, in my opinion. Engaged and thoughtful. Sad about their dog. Nice post.
He treated his dog like a person and treated people like dogs. Thanks again for all the war dead and debt, sociopath.
Always liked GW. This just reinforces it.
A true compassionate conservative. Thank you for sharing. We sometimes forget that our elected leaders are real people too. Anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet understands the former president’s words and feelings.
