An Excerpt:
....A short time later, the Secret Service opened the door and President Bush walked in. I thought we might get to shake his hand as he went through. But instead, he walked up to my wife with his arms wide, pulled her in for a hug and a kiss, and said, “I wish I could heal the hole in your heart.” He then grabbed me for a hug, as well as each of our sons. Then he turned and said, “Everybody out.”
A few seconds later, the four of us were completely alone behind closed doors with the President of the United States and not a Secret Service agent in sight....
People can say what they wish about Bush II but that man was the genuine article.
President George W. and Mrs. Laura Bush - A Class Act.
Barrybama and Moochelle - Also a class act, just low class.
