The Democrat "response" will be the story.

We all have our criticisms of Bush. But he was there when it mattered on that bright sunny morning, September 11th, 2001.

[Lucky9teen]

Amen and may God Bless them all and as well, have his hand on the incoming administration.

From out of the ahes of despair in the wake of the worst terror attack on this nations soil, this man has held the light of liberty for all the world to see and on from his lips Let Freedom Reign.

President Bush has always made the tough decisions, common sense and erring on the side of Protecting American Citizens from our enemies. He is Teddy Roosevelts “Man in the Arena”.

Let us pray that his predecessor understands the wisdom in the choices of this President and that he too makes his tough decisions while errring on the side of protecting American Citzens instead of relying on political expediency and possibly erring on the side of those that would do her harm.

Everything he did he did out of love for the country and the people of the nation (even though of course many of us disagree with some of those things). Contrast that to the previous occupant there who did many things out of the idea of covering his backside.

I pray for this nation as Obama becomes president. Pray that he would look to God for guidance and direction and discernment. Honestly, any man who has to live in the same house his mother in law lives in needs our prayers. LOL!

I have a feeling this speech will be an emotional one and will watch on line.

Call a call earlier this p.m. I’m now the proud holder of a ticket to the ex-President Bush reception to be held in Midland, TX on Tuesday afternoon. It’s a 90-mile drive, but I want to attend. I was there when he left Midland for Washington that cold day in January 2001. I disagree with some of his decisions, more than a few actually, but he kept us safe after that terrible day in September.

President Bush has far more confidence in the Amerikan people than I do. I hope I am wrong, but I doubt it.

My thanks to President Bush, Vice President Cheney, the men and women serving in our armed forces and all those who have toiled day and night to keep America safe and free.

Amen, kristinn.

[roses of sharon]

God Bless President Bush.

[CaribouCrossing]

Amen.

[Norman Bates]

President Bush is exceedingly gracious with his comments - far too gracious if you ask me considering how many daggers Obama had for Bush. Yet after this the left and blacks will continue to hate Bush. Go figure.

[Inspectorette]

Real blurry screen here already. I know I'm gonna be sobbing in about 20 minutes.

I have felt love for two presidents in my lifetime: Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. I still tear up when I look at pictures or video of President Reagan.

[AmericanGirlRising]

I’m thankful to President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Mrs. Bush for being our leaders the last eight years. I will miss them.
