GWB's latest grandkid is named....Poppy.

As in the Poppy fields of Afghanistan that were seized to corner the Opium market.

Not kidding. You could not make this garbage up. Welcome to the New World Order, Poppy!

Poppy Hager, Opium King's granddaughter

It's nicer sounding than

"Halliburton", "Oil", or

"Payback".

Probably because he's been trading guns for drugs since the Mena Connection and Iran Contra.

She married some Navy guy though.

Poppy means dad.

Many call their dad's Poppy.

Delusional conspiracies belong in Skunk.

Actually Merriam Webster has this definition for Poppy:

poppy: : a type of plant that has bright red or orange flowers and that is the source of opium; also : its flower

Poppy -- Merriam Websters


'Dad' isn't even listed among the alternate definitions.

And even if it meant 'Dad,' Jenna Bush Hager knows what 'poppy' means and her father's connection to it.

George H.W. Bush's mother gave him the nickname, He was called Poppy as a child. That was LONG before he even knew about Afghanistan or poppy fields. Ridiculous thread!



George was named after his grandfather, George Herbert Walker. Since George’s mother called Grandfather Walker “ Pop, ” she began calling her son, his namesake, “ little Pop, ” or “ Poppy. ” Hence, Poppy Bush is the name the President’s family friends have called him since his youth.

How about Heroin or Opiate? Maybe Big Pharma…

Maybe just Olive Oil.

I always took Bush Sr's "poppy" nickname as a drug reference. But forget about that for a second. Let's say it just means father. Why would you call a girl by a name that is supposed to mean father? Either way it's strange.

The Mena connection was the Clinton's and the Iran Contra was Reagan. At least know what your talking about.

Read my post above.

Why would they name a girl the name of a flower? Like Jasmine, Iris, Violet, Heather, Rose, Lily and Daisy?
