FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) ― Former President George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, visited wounded soldiers and their families near the site of the worst mass shooting on an Army post in the United States.

The Bushes made their private visit to Fort Hood's Darnall Army Medical Center on Friday night. Bush spokesman David Sherzer said in an e-mail that the couple thanked Fort Hood's military leaders and hospital staff for the "amazing care they are providing."

Bush has always been compassionate towards military bereavement etc., but he is also in no way blind to the fact that by going he is essentially calling the obama attitude toward the military into open insult.

anyone who is remotely informed on the obama attitude on this affair cannot help but draw some unpalatable conclusions about obama.

I am once again in tears, grieving for what we have lost, and most of all what your precious troops have lost.....

Posts # 64 shows his name at the bottom, other posts are even more elucidating,quite a thread. The story is from the Canadian Free Press of course. Our media is busy ignoring any details that might show what a muzzie our potus is.

perhaps that is one of the reasons that the media-left hated him? they cannot conceive of someone that does something for no gain to themselves

I think you have put your finger on a good part of their hatred, NativeSon.

They cannot conceive of his goodness, because they have none themselves.

Their plot for eight years was to hide who he was, so that no one would know that their attacks on him were pure lies.

They will hide this too.

And it's an even longer time ahead, Faith.

May God protect us from this monster in the White House! May God surround our troops with a shield of protection. They have no Commander in Chief.....

He is a horrible, horrible man, dmd.

Even those of us who knew he would be a complete disaster, at least most of us, didn't know how deeply evil he was, and how overt and full-forced his attempts to destroy America would be.

They cannot conceive of his goodness, because they have none themselves.

What infuriates them even more is where he found it in his heart, especially after his "change" and saying good-bye to the bottle. He found it in his heart via God, Jesus or how ever you speak of him and his love.

And that drives these secular humanistic waifes out of their minds....

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least. President Bush is that kind of compassionate man and leader, who really cares about our men and women in service. I sure miss him!

You’re exactly right. He is redeemed through the power of Jesus Christ his Lord, admits his sin, and the basis for his faith, and that enfuriates his enemies.

And this is my President - not that pretender who went to Camp David instead (I’m sure to celebrate the terrorist attack of our nation)!
