President Bush's interview, IMHO, was a WOW!!!

From the look on Bob Costa's face I think he was totally taken back by the intelligence, sincerity and charm of President George W. Bush.

I'm also tired of hearing all the pundits talking about should he or shouldn't our President gone to the Olympics. I am proud that our President has gone and even prouder that he isn't just sitting in the stands looking for a photo opt.

Have fun Mr. President!

I didn’t get that at all. He was smirking the entire time even when discussing China’s human rights abuses (and making excuses for them).

IMO, it was pathetic.

I agree about the pundits and the interview. I, of course, do not know President Bush personally, but I was certain that the main reason he was determined to go to the Olympics was to show the athletes how proud he and our country are of them. He can also do some networking with other national leaders, but his main goal obviously was to interact with and support the athletes. He looks as if he is having a ball in the stands waving his flag and cheering for the Americans.

IMO, one of the worst decisions Jimmy Carter ever made was to prevent the US athletes from attending the 1980 Olympics. He destroyed the hopes and dreams of athletes who had been working and training for a goal that was stolen from them just to make a political point. For some, that would be their only opportunity to participate in an Olympics.

I may be wrong, but I think his presence in Beijing will be a stark contrast to Obamas European Tour. The genuine love President Bush has for our country and his fellow man is so apparent, just as Obama's disdain for America and its values were obvious as the media breathlessly followed him around the world.

Bob Costas (and his dyed hair job) was rude in his interview of President Bush. What the hell was Costas doing? This was set up by the radical NBC lefties. GWB did a good job in the interview, NBC sould be sold off from GE and left to die.
