HOUSTON -- George H.W. Bush, a patrician New Englander whose presidency soared with the coalition victory over Iraq in Kuwait, but then plummeted in the throes of a weak economy that led voters to turn him out of office after a single term, has died. He was 94.

The World War II hero, who also presided during the collapse of the Soviet Union and the final months of the Cold War, died late Friday night, said family spokesman Jim McGrath. His wife of more than 70 years, Barbara Bush, died in April 2018.

Never put it past the AP (or media, in general) to take a shot at GOP guy and the right even in an obituary.

WWII pilot. CIA. VP. President.

Without the stupid “No new taxes”, he could have been one of the most remembered presidents.
