Welcome to the wonderfull world of politics.

"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer"

Seems to be the rule of the day.

Bush is a politician. He uses people for various purposes and feels he can use X42 for tsunami relief efforts. Also, I don't think X42 really got into the Gore recount much. Bush probably appreciates that.

Slow news day?

Are you another one of these people that just can't STAND the successes of the Bush administration and are desperately trying to come up with something to bitch about?

[peyton randolph]

What I don’t understand is why President Bush now embraces a man

41 and 43 are rehabilitating the reputation of 42 to protect the reputation of the presidency in general. Whether or not this is the right thing to do is open to debate. However, we know that both 41 and 43 think little of Clinton based on their prior statements. The ex-presidents' club has legitimacy only to the extent that people perceive the group in a positive light.

Not wrong about the bent one, no.

I've wondered the same thing myself.

[beeler]

There's plenty to bitch about even in the face of Bush's successes. When it comes to politics, there's always something...

[Paradox]

The left has a similar list of transgressions by the Bush administration. Its all tinfoil to me. Left-foil, Right-foil, I wad it up and throw it away.

3,000 dead people on 9/11 say NO.

Part of being an ex-president is being a stateman and trying to show some class. This makes strange bedfellows, but does help people to remember you in a better light.

I would also have to add that the country changes after 911. Much more important things to do than fight old battles. The left has not learned this lesson.

Jimmy Carter was doing better with his Habitat for Humanity, but is currently FAILING at being a statesman or showing any class.

[ssaftler]

Oooo, sounds like a veiled reference to the dreaded "Council on Foreign Relations" to me.

And I thought all of the Keepers Of Odd Knowledge were over on the DUmmy site!

Read my profile it might help clear up some of it. -Tom

Wow, thanks! I agree but very few FReepers see it this way.
