GHWB and Clinton are hangin' these days. What's up with that?

You Democrats and Republicans both out there must be shocked and dismayed!

How does just showing up in Phuket, Thailand help raise funds?

Maybe they just realized that they won't have enough money in their Social Security pensions that they will have to move in together at the Presidential Retirement Homes.

Yeah, that's it! They're working on their resumes so they can get that golden years job at the golden arches.

:D

From what I read, the fact that they're out touring the disaster area is supposed re-energize financial support from home. Bring it back to the fore of people's awareness.

But their friendship is supposed to extend beyond cooperation to drum up more donations for tsunami relief. According to the article I cited, they're almost fishing buddies.

I like Serenity's take on this.

As for being buddy-buddy, it's a good way to show THEY can transcend partisan politics (as ex-presidents), just in case that 2-term limit ever gets lifted. :D

I never looked deeply into Bush 41's heart. I thought his neglect of the underprivileged was lack of awareness, as opposed to Bush 43's agressive and fully aware disdain.

Politicians can easily transcend partisan politics when their political career is over. ;)
