Considering the fact he's buddies with Bill Clinton now, and his son got away with mass murder, there's really no danger to his reputation. These people are experts in breaking the law while keeping their image as lovable grandfathers. Expect the story to fade away soon with nothing changing for anyone.

Life Is Beautiful 716 Posted October 26, 2017 This is stupid! The man is 93 for God's sake! I volunteered at a nursing home and I can tell you that the behavior of 93 year old women there is much, much worse. He has a form of Parkinson's and it affects cognitive and mental capacities as well, and his guards warned the actress not to stand next to him, so they knew he is not in control of what he is doing anymore.Why are we even discussing this?! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted October 26, 2017 It's weird because in t he 1970s and 1980s watching fat middle aged men groping young women used to be Saturday night tv entertainment and everyone laughed their heads off at it ! (Benny Hill, the Two Ronnies etc). Have we all just got too prudish? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted October 27, 2017 Now a third accuser steps forward. Unless it turns out that he sexually assaulted women in his hay day, I’m just gonna assume that the women are just attention seekers. I mean, it doesn’t look like he can reach higher than he can FFS.

msc 18,436 Posted October 27, 2017 He's 93, with Parkinsons. You know, that degenerative disease which, among many other things, effects the brain and cognitive reasoning? It's as if he shouldn't be judged by the same standards as a 50 something movie mogul or something... And you know, I have sod all tolerance for actual sexual predators, but as it stands, this comes across as a complete non-story. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted October 28, 2017 Fourth accusation of sexual assault. This time it’s different, however, because the incident apparently happened in 2006, before he got confined into his wheelchair... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say, if this is something that has happened more than once, it'd be nice of his bodyguards/nurses to warn people in advance not to stand too close to him. Even if he himself no longer has any tact, the people around him should be familiar with his new habits and discretely intervene to protect his reputation. I wouldn't go as far to call these ladies "attention seekers" – I'm sure that they felt uneasy/humiliated when groped by papa Bush. And while his age/Parkinson's can take part of the blame for these situations, his staff could have done more to avoid these. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Life Is Beautiful 716 Posted November 3, 2017 Only three little weeks left to break Gerry's long lasting record! I honestly never thought 41 would make it this far. He was already looking frail and old toward the end of his son's presidency, and that was 9 years ago! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a 93 year old with Parkinson's that's been hospitalized at least 3 times this year alone. It can't be healthy forcing him into the public on a frigid November day. Nobody was surprised nor did they expect Reagan or Ford to put their misery in the public eye like how 43 and Barbara seem to be exploiting him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
