Bush debunks Palin lies. "I have never said that."

The other day, I questioned the credibility of reports that former President, George W. Bush openly questioned the qualifications of Sarah Palin.

"I suspect that Bush will be asked about Palin repeatedly over the next few weeks during his book tour. It's likely that another myth perpetuated by an anonymous source is about to be discredited."

It only took three days...

RUSH: I want to give you a chance to comment on something. There are stories going around that do not quote you -- that quote "associates" or "friends" --saying that you are telling them that Sarah Palin was a bad choice by Senator McCain to be vice president --

PRESIDENT BUSH: Yeah.

RUSH: -- and that she --

PRESIDENT BUSH: I have never said that, of course, nor have I read about it. You know, I'm not gonna comment on anybody who might be running for president. But that's what happens in today's world, the blogosphere. You know, people get to hide behind some codename or something. They toss out a gossip or rumor and it floats around the Internet. I never said that, never would have said that.

I don't blame him for denying this.

It was probably said in a private conversation and had no business being publicized.

I don't blame him for not responding to questions about Palin. why would he want to hurt her by saying she, unquallified?

Now if Rush could get the 70% of Americans that say she's not qualified, poll after poll, to admit that they weren't polled, now THAT would be news worthy!

C4PH,

Excellent point, but probably lost on those who support Palin.
