“Even with the open borders stuff? Not me...but I do think he was harshly treated by the Lib Media.”
President Bush never once advocated for so-called unchecked / unbridled “open-borders.” After Obasm’s four years, Bush’s border policy will seem trivial in comparison to the catastrophes that await America under the socialist despot and terrorist sympathizer now in office.

I don’t understand? Isn’t more appropriate for a former President to go overseas and give a speech bashing America instead of acting like a retired statesman .
Oh wait, only former Democrat Presidents bash the nation in speeches delivered out of the country.

If I owned a hardware store, I wouldn’t even let Obama organize the nail bin.

I dunno though...looking at his poker face right now...I almost believe my own prayers...that he has a few cards up his sleave..and will use them if neccessary to protect our country. What could he do? I know he prays.

I don’t refute what the Marxist Messiah will do.
GWB could have had a stronger border policy, period.

Wait until the Marxist Messiah gets through with our borders! You will wish you had supported President Bush’s plan.
Mark my word. It’s too late now.

Totally agree. I had my differences as well. But he is a decent, honorable man. And the way the Left treated him is beyond shameful.
By the way, I intend to show the 44th President at least the same amount of respect that the Left showed the 43rd.

You're not alone. I wake up every night and worry about the state of the country and I have never done anything like this before in my life. I have always been able to sleep, but in the last month. I have Obama Anxiety syndrome.

BS...that cowboy hat fooled us all.
He sold his Crawford ranch the day he moved out of the White House, and now he’s swinging with his Dallas country club Republicans.

Give me a break. Bush laid the foundation for all of this garbage. At least Obama pays attention to his constituents.
We had 6 years of complete R control, and Bush was democrat lite. We wouldn’t be in the position we are today if he would have pursued a sound fiscal policy and closed the borders.

Part of how the left treated him was his own fault.
If he actually tried to defend himself and COMMUNICATE with the American people, maybe his approval ratings would not have been in the tank.
Reagan was the great communicator, Bush was the no communicator.

Balderdash. Worse than Carter? Worse than Clinton? Get real.
> He laid the foundation for all the crap going on now.
Arrant nonsense. America’s borrow-and-spend habits were established long, long before GWB’s time. And illegals have been streaming across the borders for decades, if not centuries.
Nope, that dog don’t hunt.
