This is the period of time that I'm thankful to God for President Bush's leadership and direction.

Yes, President Bush made some major errors in office; mostly not fighting back against the vicious assaults made on him on a daily basis, particularly in his second term.

But President Bush did alot of things right as well. He refused to sign the "Small Arms Treaty" with the marxist U.N., he refused to sign the keyoto (sp) treaty, which is 'cap and trade' in its essence. He lowered taxes, and his most lasting legacy: the appointees to the SCOTUS.

When the other Bushs are mentioned; he will never come to mind. His own mother and father distanced themselves from "George" on a Larry King show. Essentially saying that "George" is more conservative and sees things differently than them.

Yes he made errors but he did alot right. Did anyone ever doubt his love of country; his love for the military?His determination in keeping us safe? Remember how it felt to be proud? To feel secure? Remember taking our economy and our own jobs and situations for granted? Remember hearing, in all the daily media noise, that unemployment was steady around 4.5%? Remember how we rebuilt after 9-11? Not only do I miss that but as someone else on this thread said, I miss America.

I remember after the 2000 election, the common mantra by (some) the media was that the adults are back in charge. Remember that disgrace called Clinton and his trash pried all the 'W' keys from keyboards (or was it GWB keys?).

A true class act and a true leader and yes, he is missed.

but as someone else on this thread said, I miss America.

Yeah, I do too. But in November 2010, we started taking it back. This November we'll take even more of it back, and we'll continue to take it back.

I agree with you that the worst thing Bush did was not fight back against the leftists. To this day I don't think he understands that it did NOT preserve the dignity of the office, it brought us Obama and the takeover of both houses of Congress. When he didn't stand up for himself, he didn't stand up for the country.

That said, I still thank God that he was president after 9/11. He did a magnificent job. Remember his speech to Congress after the attack? Brilliant. I'll never forget that.

Absolutely! Amen. That's the main point of the OP's post, after all; I seriously doubt that trebb was trying to wall-paper over President Bush's bad decisions... but is it so very hard to admit that President Bush is a good and honourable man, and that his character (not to damn with faint praise) makes those of the presidents before and after him seem downright maggot-ridden, by comparison? God bless and keep him, and I miss him, too.
