I kept tearing up making it. But that's what it's supposed to do. Let us remember the good.

Sorry. didn't tear up. All I could think about was Prescott Bush, JFK, New World Order, mass importation of Somali scum he unleashed on us. Horrible, horrible president.

Bush wanted to do what Merkel is currently proposing and that’s to get rid of national sovereignty.

Bush was far from an American patriot. He served in WWII with honorable distinction, but that was the last of his patriotic acts.

George Bush has been dead for a month now. Isn’t it about time to give the hagiography of a mediocre (that’s being generous) politician a rest? Come to think of it, you’re not alone - to listen to the news sometimes, you’d think that he died unexpectedly yesterday. I don’t remember there ever being such a prolonged fuss over any other recently-deceased President in my lifetime, including far better Presidents like Reagan.

America did not survive the 28 years of bushes, clintons and O'muslims.

Why have tears for a traitor ?

He died having known his plot to destroy our Republic had failed. His was a life of failure and treason

Nice celebration of life, mairdie and the music was solemn and appropriate on this last day of the year. To a better 2019!

that was a lovely tribute although I am rather conflicted on the entire Bush clan and their behavior and statements vs President Trump. Was it you who taped the info follow on about ‘the envelope(s)’ ???

This thread is not about whether or not one thinks that GHW Bush should be eulogized; the title makes it manifestly clear what it is. Anyone who is not interested in partaking of this eulogy had reasonable notification to avoid the thread.

Many on this board who profess a conservative philosophy are quick to criticize any one who objects to, for instance, social media sites being regulated, proclaiming that anyone who does not like such sites is free to avoid them in the free market.

Anyone who does not like this thread is free to avoid it. No one has compelled you to high-jack it to spout vitriol. If you feel so strongly about it, then post your own vanity asking the rhetorical question of whether GHW Bush should be celebrated or not.

There was a recent notice by the website owner regarding posting etiquette. The many gratuitous, vitriolic and arrogant postings on this thread violate the spirit, if not the letter, of the pointed message from the owner: They are off topic and mean spirited.
