Comment: Ms. Jarrar also took to Twitter within an hour after the announcement of Bush's death, saying, "Barbara Bush was a generous and smart and amazing racist who along with her husband, raised a war criminal. [Expletive] outta here with your nice words." This reflects the caliber of some of the people teaching our kids in college today.

Comment: Later, Jeezy added still more to his rant: "You can keep your p*ssy; I don’t want no more Bush. No more War. No more Iraq. No more white lies. My president is black!" Not exactly what I'd call a class act. But I suppose that's intentional.

Comment: Tucker Carlson commented: "Let's all stop lying for a minute. What Sarah Jeong said was wrong but it was only shocking because she expressed it so clearly. In point of fact, her views are commonplace in the American establishment, maybe universal. Try to find a single government bureaucrat or college administrator or head of corporate HR who disagrees with the idea that people should be judged by the color of their skin and that some races are more virtuous and deserving than other races. They all think that. Every one of them." (Source.)

Comments obviously directed at the country's citizens, made with a grin from ear to ear, after he would get aboard Air Force One, as recalled by Robert M. MacMillan, an Air Force One steward.

Comment: According to the referenced source, President Johnson was often inebriated. Secret Service agents also said he was uncouth and just plain nasty. Once, when Vice President Johnson was going to be late for four p.m. appointment with JFK, he told his driver to jump the curb and drive on the sidewalk. When the driver refused, Johnson hit him on the head with a newspaper and told him he was fired. (He wasn't really.) As President, Johnson had affairs with several of his secretaries. Secret Service agents would drive him to a secretary's resident and then depart for a while as instructed.

Comment: "Listen, I need help," Jones whined on CNN. "I wake up in the morning, I'm trying to be a warrior of the light, and I reach for my cell phone, and I look at it, and I just start freaking out, and I freak out the whole day. . . What do you do?"
