Bush has been nothing but a class act... agree with him or not...
passing it on..
Thanks for posting.
I agree with your dad 100%.
I voted twice for Mr. Bush and I would do it AGAIN. Thank you Mr. President for all you did to keep us safe.
The lowlife Clintons, and their trash, trashed the WH and AF1 and nothing was ever done or said about it.
We just keep letting Democrats get by with their crimes and they just keep getting more brazen. We will have nothing left because of our timidity.
Now they're trying to steal elections and the worst of is that our very own side doesn't care. Our side (even Freepers) says that it's ok to steal elections of we don't like the Republican.
I agree——and definitly would have voted for him again over the choices we had in this election.
The lies began during the election recount. Claims of people not being allowed to vote (disenfranchisement), Dem election officials doing everything they could to turn the election Gore's way (hanging chads, disqualifying military votes), a Dem Florida Supreme court helping them.
When finally it was settled, the propaganda machine began - "The U.S. Supreme Court selected the President."
And except for about 1 week after 9/11, it has been non-stop. Not one thing the man did or did not do escaped the wrath of the left, Democrats, MSM, university elite professors, Hollywood. It almost became a joke - every misfortune that befell Americans was Bush's fault.
It did not start with the Iraq war. Like I said, it began on November 8, 2000.
The attack on George W. Bush is far from over. There is a SERIOUS plan under consideration, to prosecute Bush for “war crimes” for his activities in Afghanistan and Iraq, and treat him the way Saddam Hussein was, captured, held, tried and executed.
This is but a short extension of the “Bush Derangement Syndrome”, and entirely within the realm of possibility, considering the passions that drive this nascent Obama Administration. What do they think America is, Haiti? Jean-Claude Duvalier (nicknamed Bébé Doc or Baby Doc) (born July 3, 1951) succeeded his father, François “Papa Doc” Duvalier, elected to the presidency in 1957. In 1964 he declared himself president for life and indeed, stayed president until his death in 1971, when his son, Jean-Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier, succeeded him. Papa Doc was an expert in voodoo who ruled Haiti with brute force and terror, with a ruthless security force, the Tontons Macoutes, acting as real-life bogeymen who routinely executed his opponents.
Does the “Civilian National Security Force” set off any alarm bells?
Right you are. Who said this?
“Today I want to speak to every person who voted for my opponent: To make this nation stronger and better I will need your support, and I will work to earn it. I will do all I can do to deserve your trust. A new term is a new opportunity to reach out to the whole nation. We have one country, one Constitution and one future that binds us. And when we come together and work together, there is no limit to the greatness of America.”
It was George W. Bush, November 3, 2004, after being elected to his second term. How short are the memories of the virulent Bush-haters on the left, who never gave him a chance. He reached across the aisle so many times, and they bit his hand. He compromised a great deal - to the detriment of his popularity - and they did not soften one iota toward him. He got called Hitler and Nazi for his troubles.
He has been wrong on much - mostly spending and big government - but he has been right on terrorism and has kept us from being attacked, not just here but pretty much worldwide, for 7 years. No gratitude from the self-righteous “progressives” and from many of our own party. I hope that history makes the right call - but with leftists writing most of the books used in schools, don’t count on it.
They aren’t done yet.
Impeachment try to come.
Bush is a blight on the Republican Party.
In fact that's how many have been speaking about him the last two years, and, to my mind, rightfully so. The man whom all the pundits said would be the next Ronald Reagan ended by being the 2nd coming of Jimmy C.
Too bad Bush is a big government globalist, I might have more sympathy for him.
It did not start with the Iraq war. Like I said, it began on November 8, 2000.
You are so right on! I was arguing this point last week with a liberal coworker and I got pretty heated in my defense of Bush. This coworker is a black minister nonetheless and claims that Bush shows all the signs of a drug addict who has lost too many brain cells to be able to make basic decisions. My outward disgust may actually cost me my job unfortunately because our President is an Obamaniac as are about 90% of the staff of our social services agency.
Great article, David! I agree with your Dad. Pres. Bush will be remembered in the history books as a great president. His defense of our nation and the successes in the Middle East are his legacy.
Bush is a blight on the Republican Party.
As are you on the decency of mankind!
I could not have said it better.

Well, not as bad as Carter, but there's a lot of truth in that.
A lot of what's said about Bush focuses on his dignity, which is a fine thing. But he doesn't seem to be much of a force in the country lately when leadership is needed, and that's not a good thing.
His reputation will rise after he leaves office, but there are real limits on how high it will go.
This treatment of a President in a time of war would have been considered treason 60 years ago.
It IS treason, where anyone considers that or not. I would love to see the ringleaders hung for it.
