LARRY KING: Are you fond of [Bill Clinton]?

BARBARA BUSH: Yes. All right. Yes, no, I like him.

KING: You don't like him, though?

BARBARA BUSH: No, I think he's...

GEORGE HERBERT WALKER BUSH: She hasn't been around him.

BARBARA BUSH: No, I haven't. But he's been very good about not criticizing the president. As of today's paper, he did not criticize the paper -- I mean the president. And I appreciate that.
