We conservatives must repent of our negativity regarding President Bush, God bless him and empower him in his final weeks as president.

Where he was wayward, we might have prayed all the more for him.

I don't believe prayer would have prevented the massive expansion of the federal government that Bush undertook, which is one reason Obama will be the next president. But Bush did a great and noble thing in overthrowing Saddam and his attempt to bring democracy to a Mideast tyranny is one of the finest acts of US foreign policy ever. And despite the false starts and wasted months before the arrival of Petraus, Bush has won his Iraq war with a historically low number of US casualties.

I was never negative toward him. When he did something right, I said so. When he was wrong, likewise. When he p!ssed me off, I said he p!ssed me off, not that he was a buffoon, an idiot, or a bumpkin. When he behaved like a buffoon, an idiot or a bumpkin, I said it was just George being George.

What I CAN’T forgive him for is not cleaning house.

AMEN. I AGREE WITH EVERY WORD.
