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.

I’m just wondering who “Favor Center” supports? I’d be curious to find out; but I’m not going to ask him/her, because I’m only wasting time arguing with this !$@! You and some others here are doing a much better job dealing with this ‘clown’ than I could, anyway.
Carry on!
Oh well don’t go away mad; just go away!
Who from? The two or three who have just shown up? Well, well, that’s quite a crowd you’ve got now..! Ok, now I’m scared.. I think I’ll faint in a minute or so.... or maybe in a half hour...
(laugh)
Yeah, I noticed that! (LAUGH)
Although I also noticed that this ‘we’ (or he and his fellow conservatives, whoever they are)are in short supply tonight.
He acts as though this “we” is most of the whole “Free Republic” site. However, I think it is a smaller, but obnoxious bunch, who seem to think “Free Republic” is only their playground and nobody else better dare show up! They keep on saying that they thought they drove all the ‘Bushbots’ off. Funny thing, poor things, they seem to have such a hard time, we don’t behave well!
Besides, what do they want to run us off for? Without us ‘Bushbots’, who would they have to argue with? They might get lazy or bored or something, and that’s really not good for their health. (chuckle)
Anyway, I told them I was just so scared, and that I might just (sniff)faint soon...maybe in a half hour, or so..
(laugh)
Aww.. We don’t want him to go away mad, do we? No, we just want him to go away!
You got your ass whipped. LOL.
How about a little posse?
You mean 'sticky'.
“An honorable man, honoring LIFE.”
Thirty thousand dead due to illegal aliens and climbing since 2001.
“You got your ass whipped. LOL.”
Hardly. Just revolted.
Sorry about the soldier/Marine goof!
Anyway, President Bush was and is HONORABLE, and the photos make the point (and make the troll look dopey!)
Thanks for adding another photo. There are scads more, but the point can be made with just a few.....
It's too early. I'd probably vote Palin if the election were this year. Since it isn't, I don't support anyone for an electoral process that hasn't even started yet.
Certainly not your fellow traveler Romney or anyone else from the Bush/McCain axis of the party.
“Anyway, President Bush was and is HONORABLE, and the photos make the point (and make the troll look dopey!)”
LOL. Picture-licking does not win you political arguments.

You ARE a retread TROLL! HA!
No, jogging.
“HONOR” is another word you don’t understand. HONOR means upholding your solemn oath. Bush failed at that. He failed at the most basic purpose of the Executive Branch - defend the country.
His dancing-around-Africa-throwing-our-money-around-so-Bono-would-like-him was also hardly honorable. It was a violation of the public trust like all public charity.
“You lose, FC. No honor.”
I abide by my oath. Pity Bush couldn’t bring himself to do the same.

Why did you come back? Wideawakes not work out for you?
The conservatives certainly didn't “repent” their heresy, did they?
You're as phony as any single person on this board, and everyone knows it..........including you if you have even a shred of functioning conscience.
The words of an avowed liar have no credibiilty among honest people, no matter whether some agree with you or not. And honest freepers who agree with your politics (or your feigned politics) think you suck. Your "honor" is in your head, FC.
You lose. No honor.
Retread. Troll. Ethics-challenged. More proof.
