Obama, George H.W. Bush Hold Texas Community Service Event

(College Station, TX) -- President Obama heads to Central Texas today to join former President George H.W. Bush at an event to promote community service. The presidential forum is being held at the George Bush Presidential Library Center on the Texas A&M University campus in College Station, Texas.

It is meant to be a non-partisan event to celebrate the importance of community service. However, that doesn't mean Obama's visit to the largely conservative college town will necessarily go off without a hitch. The North Houston Tea Party Patriots are already planning to turn out to the Texas A&M campus to protest the Democratic President.

Other political demonstrations are expected as well. Former President Bush sent a letter to the university this week asking the student body to be on its best behavior during the forum.

Another example of Bush’s bad judgement that lost him the election.

Obama= the New Clinton.
This is precisely what is wrong with American Politics.
Everybody wanting to ‘make nice’ and use the new guy or the old guy to cleanse themselves of some degree of the taint of partisanship. They ALL suck. They are all members of the same political elite class.

You may as well hug up on this one too H.W..

I’m sure that Reagan had to gag at the very thought of having to choose you as his V.P..

Unfortunately GHWB can’t say no to a sitting or even former President. It just wouldn’t be socially correct to snub someone who through an election has become a peer.

I just wish Obama would stop this incessant traveling.

I've been paying my state and federal taxes ever since I started working almost fifty years ago. That's enough "service" for me, thank you very much.

Poppy Bush and Zero... Zero plus Zero = Zero.

One of poppy Bush's catch terms was The New World Order. He is a globalist and had no pretext otherwise. More evidence that the R's & D's are the same animals; they simply wear different masks.

I remember being excoriated during the election for saying McCain=Obama; that a slow road to hell and a fast road to hell both take you to hell. The question presents itself, how do we fix it?

Nothing has changed: GHWB always had a fascination for power and trying to get a Democrat to say something nice about him. But they won’t!

Not only did Reagan fall for GHWB, but he fell for Sandra Day O’Connor, Anthony Kennedy, and King Day, and other indiscretions too. King Day is bad because it fed mightily into “white guilt”.

not even a Marxist President ruling as head over his own Corruptocracy
ushering in the tyranny our very Constitution was designed to prevent?

wouldn’t be prudent?

It doesn’t make any difference which party they belong to because they both work(ed) for the New World Order.

Makes me envious of the good old days when royalty wasn't so squeamish about lopping off the heads of rival monarchs.
