A family of class vs the bastard impeached and mrs impeached. Barbara Bush: 'We Took a Vow' Not to Criticize Clintons For the first time since she and her husband left the White House on Jan. 20, 1993, former first lady Barbara Bush explained on Wednesday why they never spoke ill of their successors, Bill and Hillary Clinton. Asked why she and President Bush 41 never criticized the Arkansas couple during their eight years in the White House, Mrs. Bush told radio host Sean Hannity, "We took a vow we would not speak badly." Asked about the nearly constant criticism by both Clintons leveled over the last three years against her son, George W. Bush, the former first lady at first hesitated, as if worried about keeping her word, then said only, "That's too bad." In the next breath she added, "I appreciate you're saying what a lot of people think." The full exchange went like this: HANNITY: I've watched your husband from a distance and I'm sure during those eight years while the Clintons were in office that there were times he was very tempted to come out and say something. But he pretty much remained quiet. MRS. BUSH: And he should have. HANNITY; Well, and even your son. The worst that he ever said about the Clintons was "We're going to restore honor and dignity to the White House." But yet Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton are out there almost daily as monitors of almost every single decision that your son is making. MRS. BUSH: Well. HANNITY: What do you make of that? MRS. BUSH: I can't say. We took a vow that we would not speak badly. But that's just - that's just too bad. And it's, well ... HANNITY: Look, I don't want to push you in a direction you don't want to go. I'm not - I'm not - we're just glad you're here with us. MRS. BUSH: Well, it is - I appreciate you're saying what a lot of people think.
