The writer of the article references the "tradition under which US presidents mute criticisms of their successors," and the author is right.
Remind me where Bush the Elder criticized Clinton like this?
The Eisenhower quote is a pretty lame attempt at comparison.

The harshest thing that I ever heard POTUS41 say about POTUS42 was after POTUS42 said some untrue, unfair, unnecessary things about Dubya during the 2000 presidential elections. He basically said that if Clinton didn't stop taking shots at Dubya, that he WOULD go on record with what he REALLY thought about Clinton as a man and as a president.
The circumstances and substance of GHWB's comments make the comparison moot.

Exactly, but yet again we see that mavdog will not allow a fact to get in the way of liberal spin.
