" One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back. " Lewis Carroll wasn't talking about Jabberwocks of course. He was comparing how quickly the Bush couple became Deathlist hits together in late 2017/2018.

msc 18,479 Posted June 2, 2017 When Pat Nixon died, there was a lot of rather ghoulish footage of the frail Richard Nixon bawling his eyes out at her funeral. Quote the commentator, "He wont last a year". He didn't, he was gone within ten months. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was surreal seeing the great and powerful Richard Nixon break down in tears, it showed he was still human though and did genuinely love his wife. I reckon we'll see something similar with H.W and Babara, only with the genders swapped and Barbara not lasting as long as good ol' Tricky Dick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the Committee for 2018 should put both: Babs and George Sr. as a pair since when one goes the other will not be far Behind. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gooseberry Crumble 5,346 Posted January 1, 2018 An excellent addition to the list and quite timely as I don't think Barbara would have liked to have been on the list at the same time as Nancy Reagan her somewhat foe! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zsa Zsa's leg 884 Posted April 15, 2018 Article states she has been hospitalized multiple times, something we haven't learned from media coverage until now. Wonder if it's the same case for George H.W. Bush, I mean their press secretary would be exhausted or they didn't want their legacy to be plastered on the MSNBC and Fox headlines for dying every other week. I feel stupid now for saying GHWB would go before her, I say Barbara has a few weeks, May 2nd if I were to give a precise prediction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
