Comments on the video are saying that Bush never once went to Dover to meet the families. Is this true?
If true, I’d have to imagine he didn’t want to interject himself and all the hoopla to turn it into a photo op - like zero just did.
I do not know. However, I do know he meet with the families in the oval office and also in his trips around the country. The media was not allowed in. Bush "DID NOT" allow the deaths of these soldiers to be used as a media event for himself.
Bush was and is a man of honor. A trait that is sorely lacking in the present white house.
Bush and Cheney met privately with many families. They were very discreet as they understood it wasn’t about them.
