Lauren Bush, the granddaughter of the president who waffled on his "read my lips" pledge, sending his budget director Richard Darman to Capitol Hill to work out a deal with the Freedom-Haters in Congress, who, like the Palestinians and the North Koreans, had and never have any intention of following through on their end of the bargain, accepts the Profiles in Courage award.
As with everything now, the layers of wrong to be peeled back are numerous. You have this fresh-faced millennial, firmly convinced that she has a grasp on what statesmanship and mature governance are all about. Also honored this year was a former mayor of Uvalda, Georgia for his coddling of illegal aliens. You have the 1992 presidential-race loss which is attributable in large part to the peldge waffle. You have the whole history of Bush family muddle-headedness, from the Clean Air Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the description-drug expansion of Medicaid, the Six-Way Talks about North Korea, and, most recently, Jeb's pronouncement that people illegally entering this country is an "act of love."
This is Reasonable Gentleman Syndrome at its most horrifying. I hope this sweet young lady has a nice life, but she has so, so many learning experiences ahead of her.
