President Bush 41 completely supports the War on Terror, including the Iraq aspect, and was thrilled with his son's daring Thanksgiving visit to that country made under cover of darkness. He was not in the least offended that he arrived at the ranch without being told ahead of time that GWB was on a secret mission.

Your post is the first I've heard of it. I've seen interviews where his mother says that she and his father have differences with their son, but won't explain what they are. I've seen articles in which the foreign policy gurus of Bush 41 have written about how they referred to Secretary Rumsfeld and his colleagues as "the Crazies" during his administration, and how they found this whole WOT, especially the Iraq part, to be reckless and unnecessary.

How do you explain Bush 41 giving his Great American award to Ted Kennedy? He said it's lifetime achievement. I don't see that Ted Kennedy was any better at the beginning of his political career *Kopechne* than he is at the end of it.
