Dissidents in the world's most oppressive countries aren't feeling the love from President Obama.
No one seems to know precisely who is behind the "Miss Me Yet?" billboard—the cheeky one featuring a grinning George W. Bush that looks out over I-35 near Wyoming, Minn. But Syrian dissident Ahed Al-Hendi sympathizes with the thought.
In 2006, Mr. Hendi was browsing pro-democracy Web sites in a Damascus Internet café when plainclothes cops carrying automatic guns swooped in, cuffed him, and threw him into the trunk of a car. He spent over a month in prison, some of it alone in a 5-by-3 windowless basement cell where he listened to his friend being tortured in the one next door. Those screams, he says, were cold comfort—at least he knew his friend hadn't been killed.
Mr. Hendi was one of the lucky ones: He's now living in Maryland as a political refugee where he works for an organization called Cyberdissidents.org. And this past Monday, he joined other international dissidents at a conference sponsored by the Bush Institute at Southern Methodist University to discuss the way digital tools can be used to resist repressive regimes.
He also got to meet the 43rd president. In a private breakfast hosted by Mr. and Mrs. Bush, Mr. Hendi's message to the former president was simple: "We miss you." There have been "a lot of changes" under the current administration, he added, and not for the better.

Sounds as appetizing as kimchi.
That’s POIFECT! :)
“You lied about what I think of him, and others who don’t share my admiration for President Bush.”
I guess I do have to dig up the posts, then.
Here’s one (took all of a minute):

Since you view disagreement with his AGENDA (all WE ever bring up!) as “hate”....
“You have a serious ethical problem, and you need to deal with it.”
The only thing I need to deal with is to knock the dust of your town from my feet and stop casting pearls before swine. I will be a guest of the OHNG later this year, but I’ll be sure to avoid any of your areas of the state.
Thank you both!
Or...
Suck on, oh prince of suckery. George Bush is the King of Goodness and Light and he holds his boot on the Throat of Tyranny!
You're irrelevant.
LOL! YOU rock!!!
Yikes! You’re on FIRE today.
We'll wait.
Who died and made YOU the arbiter of truth?
“Who died and made YOU the arbiter of truth?”
I don’t know... your last brain cell?
By what stretch of the imagination can NCLB, the bailouts, the stimulus, Medicare Part D, and amnesty (yes, it WAS AN AMNESTY - we already HAVE multiple guest worker programs) and resulting Democrat majorities be considered “conservative”?
I've responded to that list on threads past.
Fully half of it is liberal (you have NCLB on there, after all) and a good chunk of the rest devolves to platitudes.
It does show just what you think “conservative” means - anything a Republican does.
Outstanding work!
“You may take a break from repeating all the usual “Bush is a liberal” sucking points the Left uses over and over no matter what the facts or reality.”
Actually, the Left continues to proclaim Bush as a “hard right conservative”. I can’t imagine they’d have got much traction AGAINST Bush by proclaiming him one of them. You actually claim that you understand politics? LOL.
“You’re irrelevant.”
That may be, but at least I’m sane and am quite capable of leveling an insult without resorting to stupidity. I almost feel sorry for you.
More intelligence and reason from the suckmeister. Kindly direct me to your previous posts that refuted #340. I would love to read the blatherings of someone who calls himself Favor Center. For the “center” is where all the real accomplishments lie: the red-hot center. Luke warm, tepid, middle-of-the-road...now there’s conservatism for ya. No wonder you mistake sucking for debating.
My pleasure.
Considering what you are, you aren’t worth a “kindly” anything. Go look it up yourself, “Deb”.
“I would love to read the blatherings of someone who calls himself Favor Center.”
“Favor Center” means to “aim for the middle” in traditional military marksmanship. Oh, why bother to explain. Nothing sinks in.
You insult me and then ask me to donate.
Work on your technique.
Because they are the "some of" the people I was talking about who hate President Bush in part because of his faith. Dripping, venomous hatred based on spiritual darkness.
That is not even CLOSE to the lie you told here about my accusing people who disagree with President Bush of not being Christians. It is bizarre that you used that post to defend yourself. Bizarre.
You're in far worse shape than I thought if that is your reference for telling a bald faced lie.
As I said, it's far scarier that you think you're telling the truth when you are lying through your teeth.....and when your "proof" only proves that you are wrong.
I'm actually glad you posted that link. It shows other people how messed up you are. Please get help.
Ah, but if you read the thread, it's clear you were aiming that at CONSERVATIVES who opposed Bush's POLITICS. Leftists aren't on these threads, OhioWFan. WE ARE. You are yours aimed that at US and it is disgusting!
“That is not even CLOSE to the lie you told here about my accusing people who disagree with President Bush of not being Christians. It is bizarre that you used that post to defend yourself. Bizarre.”
You wrote it, not I.
“I'm actually glad you posted that link. It shows other people how messed up you are. Please get help.”
Projection again.
