Bush-Clinton team up at NCAA championship game
(CNN) - Just two sports fans, hanging out together, watching the NCAA men's basketball championship game.
But in this case, it was former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, who sat next to each other Monday night in a luxury box at the championship game between Connecticut and Kentucky, which was played in Arlington, Texas.

The two former presidents shared a laugh when the image of the two of them sitting together was projected on the giant video screens at AT&T Stadium. The bipartisan moment, during a break in the action in the first half of the game, drew applause from the crowd.
Former first lady Laura Bush was also in attendance, sitting next to her husband. They were all guests of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

Sin verguenza!
I would like to know how one keeps two wars off the books?
How does that work in regards to Congress and whoever the hell was supposed to be doing the checking and the balancing?
DM4O – You are correct about wars off the books. Talk about cooking the books. Suddenly in 2009, $3 trillion is added to the national debt.
It was a good game to watch. Personally, I didn't want to see either one of those teams win the championship.
Bush is an official Dallas resident, so I'm sure him and Jerry are around each other frequently. I saw that loser Tony "OhNo" Romo up there with them as well.
Good President on the left, bad president on the right.
Good cop, bad cop.
Bush and Clinton looked like a couple of regular chums at the game last night. Funny, the repbus dislike Clinton and the dems dislike Bush and they are together as good friends.
Disgusting!...What were you thinking Mr. Clinton???
I wonder if they paid for those tickets or if they got them comp'd.
President on the left NO WIFE next to him, President on the right WIFE next to him.
I'm sure she is just so busy..lol..yeah right.
@smith – Bush and Clinton looked like a couple of regular chums at the game last night. Funny, the repbus dislike Clinton and the dems dislike Bush and they are together as good friends.

They are both members of a unique set of alumni. They have no reason to be other than chums in person.
Either of these two men FAR better than what we have right now.
Bill and W are great friends. Mrs Bush, W's Mom, views Bill as her adopted son

"Bush and Clinton looked like a couple of regular chums at the game last night. Funny, the repbus dislike Clinton and the dems dislike Bush and they are together as good friends."
I do not, of course, speak for all Democrats, but it isn't that I dislike bush, I just would like to see him held accountable for his War Crimes. I mean, seems ridiculous for President Clinton to be held to the highest accountability for a bj, while bush and his posse ride off into the sunset richer than God after destroying our economy, invading two countries under false pretenses which resulted in the deaths of thousands of our American troops and hundreds of thousands of civilians, and almost ruining America's reputation.
Thank goodness President Obama was duly elected in a fair and proper election and was able to begin fixing the damage done by this worthless cretin and his despicable cronies.
Other than this, he is an all right guy, I suppose.
Clinton is doing this for political purposes for Hillary's benefit. It creates the impression to swing voters that Hillary is not the leftie that Obama is. It's all about separating Hillary from Obama when she runs.
So your saying that politicians can get past the partisan crap and be civil with each other which people on the internet fail to comprehend? Say it ain't so!
There are only a few people who have ever been president of the USA. Think about the stress... Every problem in the world ends up getting thrown to them eventually. No other world leader has to worry about that – and that doesn't even consider all the domestic issues they battle daily. These guys and Obama know things nobody else does – and nobody knows what that job is like until you have it. Imagine if every world issue including wars, economy, terrorism, plane crashes, disasters of all sorts, etc. etc, ended up being your responsibility one way or another... That is one tough job so there is no doubt those two get along. Obama will end up friends with them too once he is out of office and can drop his daily work/stress level down.
"it's good to be EX Presidents huh George ?" Sure is Billy Jeff"
