I wouldn't go that far, but I will say this: Strategory! What do these people think is going to happen every time one of the Klintoons insults Bush or conservatives, or introduces George Soros at some event? Everyone is going to think about how respectful Bush was to the Clintons. Net gain for us, he's giving them enough rope to hang themselves.
Hes by no means a Ronald Reagan but he has some of the same quality's as President Reagan is held in Reverence for.
If this was a strategy then BRAVO ! weather it works is yet to be discovered and i hope it does but to me that don't diminish him being a Gentleman to others and Respectful to the highest office in the land.
