President Bush Spends Private Time with Rope-line Soldiers

A story published in our local paper that never made it into the national media: Durham soldier injured in Iraq awaits surgery at Walter Reed. President visits him, and prays for his recovery.

Thank you so much for posting this! I think our wonderful President weeps more often than anyone knows over the lost lives of our soldiers. He just doesn't make those tears fake photo-ops like somebody else we know. I would crawl over broken glass for this man.

God Bless President Bush and the men and women who defend our liberties ~ Bump!

Even reading this thread from the bottom up and knowing it was going to be a tearful read, I wasn't prepared for the emotion that welled up. I was never so proud of a President.......and I remember Roosevelt!

[Liberty Valance]

Heartfelt Bump!

While I don't remember Roosevelt, I do remember Eisenhower, but I don't remember any President save the present one, who has had such a special relationship with our soldiers. I can't help but wonder how many of them have seen him weep? I'd be willing to bet that it's far more often than is reported. Like this story, but for the report by someone who sent his troops there, we would never have known.

The interesting thing to me is the guys on the Military board where I swiped this, have had the same reaction we have! I mean, these guys read the worst of what could happen not only to America, but in the world. I never knew they were such softies at heart.

You know, I've spent too much time reading posts of freepers who hate this President, almost with the passion that the far left does.

I've read repeated cynical, hate-filled, sarcastic and ugly comments about him by many who claim 'conservatism' and love of country as the basis for their hatred of him.

Articles like these that reveal the deep character, humility and love of George W. Bush wipe those ugly comments away.

The Bush haters on this forum are wrong. They are dead wrong about this man.

God is working in and through George W. Bush, and he MUST be reelected. The future of the country......and even the world is at stake. May God continue to bless him!

Ditto....this is one of the reasons why I love our CinC...no photo-op, no phony lip bitting..

Thanks for posting this. There is far too much bashing of President Bush on FreeRepublic, so your post is most refreshing. While I respect one's right to legitimately disagree with this President and his policies, I don't respect the narrow viewpoint of some on this forum who would say that because of this piece of legislation, or that policy proposal, they intend to sit on their hands and not vote to re-elect this man. The stakes in the world today are too high to risk turning over the Presidency to any Democrat. And this article, again, reminds us of the biggest reason to re-election George W. Bush -- he is a man of great integrity who has restored respect and honor to the Oval Office, who loves this nation and what it stands for, and who loves those who defend it.

[Logic n' Reason]

He is "The Man"; and he will remain so until 2008. With God's help, we'll somehow find another just like him.

Agree with everything you say.

What an amazing man our President is. He sheds tears at the thought of what our soldiers are going through, and yet has the strength to stay the course when he has to order them into battle to protect our country. I LOVE BUSH!

VERY moving. Thanks for the pings.

From your lips to God's ears.

I can't agree more - that the future of America, and the world is at stake.

God love and bless our President with a second term. I know I will be working very hard to make that second term become a reality.

I wish more people would respond to the prayer thread in the evening. !!! ONLY IF THEY POST POSITIVE !!!. There are enough Bush-bashing threads that this one should not be.
