WOW! Beyond excellent .. and profound, point after point. Reality, distilled and crystallized.

God bless George W. Bush eternally. There could be a couple, but there may never be another President so perfectly matched for the time as he. May we never forget what selfless leadership, duty and love of country truly mean.

We were so very blessed. Thank you, God.

God Bless President Bush...however, I would never consider his Presidency as the “sacrificial Presidency” The man liberated over 50 million people and will go down as one of the greatest Presidents in history.

Great article but it made me cry. Everytime I think about how unjustly and cruelly President Bush was treated by the media and the democrats in this country, my heart gets so big and sore that it nearly breaks into pieces.

And they wonder why we aren’t jumping up and down for their imposter,narcissist,sociopathic,liar,marxist, petty president?

Forget it!

That's the money quote alright.

Credit from the left? No chance.

And you're absolutely right. Had this happened under Bush, the left would have aggressively sought to impeach him for this egregious act of terrorism.

Hypocrisy doesn't even begin to describe these traitors.

Honestly, that was the furthest thing on my mind with that ping. oWf and I have discussed many times, at length, the points I made in my post to you, thus the ping. We do not operate on that gang mentality that many do.

Thank you for verifying that, Just A Nobody. kristinn, (one of the brightest and best of FR I might add :), pinged us both to this wonderful article, presumably because he knew of our unflagging support of President Bush, not because we are part of a 'gang.'

Sometimes the accusations of some covert gang action get downright silly. If anything, you and I (and a number of others, though too few, IMO) have proven that we are perfectly willing to swim upstream to fight for something we believe in, and are as far from groupthinkers as exist.

If we were prone to groupthink, and not independent thinkers, we would have become Bush bashers like a whole lot of others who should have known better.

(Off soapbox now. ;)

You mean you're not going to Ground Zero to worship the Zero? But think of all you'll be missing ;)

LOL! Are you kidding me?! I turn off the TV/computer/radio if I hear his voice or see his stupid face and people that utter his name. It annoys me more than I can tell you how every dang website has his pic along side in those stupid, insidious ads! Thank God for FR.

Actually, I haven't talked with 'my guy' since it happened.

I would be interested in what his thoughts/feelings were when he heard.

I've kept his statement up all week and go and read all the new posts. I may have missed a few, but not many. LOL!

Not sure where these guys come from, but you are in a far better place to answer that question than I, since you raised one of our finest! As for me? I will remain eternally grateful for them and for the parents who raised them. So...thank YOU!

Oh, he knows...he KNOWS! lol!

The BDS got so bad for awhile I basically stop posting or reading and log off. Admittedly I am very touchy about the man.

Remember this famous Vanity Fair cover? One of my favorites of all time...

Without these fine people like them, it would have never happened on Sunday night! I thank God for GWB and his team for getting the ball rolling!

This is a fabulous article, and I don’t use that word often.
