I am no fan of George H.W. “New World Order” Bush, but this accusation of “sexual assault” is ridiculous.
Actress Heather Lind has jumped on the #MeToo bandwagon with her horrible tale of the chairbound president touching her ass (if that’s what he did, she hasn’t made the nature of this gruesome act explicit.)
He also, purportedly, told her a dirty joke.
This is the photo op where the alleged assault took place.
“I found it disturbing because I recognize the respect ex-presidents are given for having served. And I feel pride and reverence toward many of the men in the photo. But when I got the chance to meet George H. W. Bush four years ago to promote a historical television show I was working on, he sexually assaulted me while I was posing for a similar photo,” Lind, 34, wrote.
“He didn’t shake my hand. He touched me from behind from his wheelchair with his wife Barbara Bush by his side. He told me a dirty joke. And then, all the while being photographed, touched me again. Barbara rolled her eyes as if to say ‘not again.’ His security guard told me I shouldn’t have stood next to him for the photo.”
Lind, who played Anna Strong on the drama about “America’s first spy ring,” met the former President, 93, during a special screening of the show in 2014, a week before its premiere.
“We were instructed to call him Mr. President. It seems to me a President’s power is in his or her capacity to enact positive change, actually help people, and serve as a symbol of our democracy. He relinquished that power when he used it against me and, judging from the comments of those around him, countless other women before me,” Lind wrote.
“What comforts me is that I too can use my power, which isn’t so different from a President really. I can enact positive change. I can actually help people. I can be a symbol of my democracy. I can refuse to call him President, and call out other abuses of power when I see them. I can vote for a President, in part, by the nature of his or her character, knowing that his or her political decisions must necessarily stem from that character.”
Lind went on to say that she told her castmates about the alleged assault and that she decided to come forward because of “the bravery of other women who have spoken up and written about their experiences.”
In the past several weeks, dozens of women have accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault and harassment, as well as similar claims against other actors, producers, directors, photographers and musicians.
“I thank President Barack Obama for the gesture of respect he made toward George H. W. Bush for the sake of our country, but I do not respect him.”

Heather Lind? Hmmm. I would have been tempted.
Well it looks to me like the old dog is gripping an ass cheek with his left hand.
#MadeMePullHisFingerToo
Good shop.
Well, after all this time I am ready to come forward and tell my true story about how I have been sexually assaulted by the liberal left.
I have consistently expressed my hate and resentment of their relentless advances.
My pleas have fallen on deaf ears.
Their unrelenting attack on my sensibilities is proof that they have phucked me and mine from the get go.
There is no other political group on the planet that has continuously tried to phuck with my 1st AND 2nd Amendment rights more so than the fricking liberals.
Does anyone else remember # as the pound sign?
Hence pound me too…
When Barky gets #metooed, we can talk about the nadir.
Is this seriously assault? By saying that I’m by no means suggesting it’s OK to grab a woman’s arse, but really, assault?
Judging by the tone of the note and lack of corroboration from her fellow actors standing behind her and the thanking of obama at the end what she probably felt was his wheelchair and the “dirty joke” was some incoherent mumblings. I thinks she’s going to take it in the slats from other actors who will explain to her the difference between a “democratic republican” and a conservative.
I really need to see her ass to make a fair judgement of Bush Sr. On the series “Turn” she was usually dressed in period costumes.
And why is Elton John in the photo?
He was trying to push them away, said they smelled like broccoli!
That damn viagra i’m taking for my heart…………..

Where is the picture of Obama with his hand on Bowe Bergdahl’s mom’s butt?? I seem to remember he did that when they left the Rose Garden.
Obviously she was asking for it.
Look at those anklestraps! Red blooded American men can’t resist that!
Wait – avert your eyes guys! It’s a trap!
