I don't think Bush ever stopped standing tall. I just don't think the secret plots within plots within plots scenarios people hope for are done as a rule of thumb. I think he got dragged down by being outflanked by those who want him to lose, like a pack of wolves taking down an elk.

" A massive haul of 65 high powered guns has been seized by police, it's been disclosed.
The guns were recovered during a raid on what turned out to be an empty house in Crystal Palace, south London.
Some of the guns were hidden under the floorboards or underneath wardrobes in the property, while others were simply left lying around.
Police believe the guns were destined for use by criminal gangs in south London. Many of the guns seized were banned weapons.
They will now be destroyed. However, there have been no arrests in connection with the investigation.
Detective Chief Inspector Steve Ratcliffe said: "There is no doubt these weapons were destined to be used by criminals in south London. There is no other reason to possess these weapons."
The raid was carried out on Thursday last week. "
Nothing to see here -- move along, folks... (Patentpending)

Possible rumor
Probably nothing.....
LOL. Where is the COUNT? He could give them some instruction on how to shoot these things so they don't fall on their own heads.
Every AMERICAN is getting sick and tired of their demanding attitudes and their whining about everything,and their insisting they can chant and pray wherever they see fit, Christians are not allowed to Pray nor are people from Jewish faith, Catholic faith,and other Faiths what makes them think they can do whatever they want wherever they are
and whenever they want??
to each one of them and their attitudes......
America, love it or leave it! bahbye!
When will Brit interview Mr. President?
Latest ... rumor circulating re Mookie ... see Breaking.
Read that...........we can hope.
Dita,I don't trust this guy,,,He will sell-out to Iran...
FWIW........I agree with you.
"like a pack of wolves taking down an elk"
Good analogy and I believe that history will eventually judge him as noble as that marvelous king of the forest.
I am sorry you feel that way, and I hope you are wrong.
For the sake of Our Troops.
;)
Thank you, Rushmore Rocks!!
