Former President George W. Bush penned an essay Tuesday stressing the importance of unity during the coronavirus pandemic, writing that maintaining a free society is dependent on the character of its citizens.
We were not meant to live apart from each other, especially in times of challenge, the Republican wrote in a piece published in the George W. Bush Institutes quarterly journal The Catalyst. Our tools of compassion a hug, gathering as people of faith or in friendship, caring for our family when they are ill bring the opposite of the love we intend.

I don’t believe W. has visited the Trump WH once. Therefore, I won’t be visiting the ballot box in support of any candidate he endorses in the future.
I got his book glad i never bothered to read it.
but now our society is made up of many characters, especial in politics
I just wish you would shut your mouth!! You’re Demonrat to the core and anyone with sense doesn’t give a damn about what you have to say!!! Talk to your buddies you’re pictured with about character of citizens.....not us out here in real life America who appreciate it and are not cozying up to those who want to destroy it......SPIT!!
He is such a fool!
‘citizens’ = taxpayers who are DOCUMENTED (There is no other definition)
So if we disagree with the deep state coup of President Trump, and disagree with Democrat Covid tyranny, we dont get freedom? Are you, Mr. Bush, the arbiter of this right for American Citizens?
FU Shrub!
wouldn’t it be nice if he discovered what a mirror can do?
He must be suffering from stockholm syndrome.
Missed the part about unifying around the President.
Bush was great on 9/11. He was resolute in the Iraq War. That said, he tried too hard to make Democrats happy. Even when media was hostile to him during his presidency.
I remember the Fraud encouraging ineligible criminals, “When you vote, you are a citizen”.
Go brush a canvas.
Walking it back in three....two....one...
John Adams said almost the same thing, but he said it correctly:
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
To paraphrase Gertrude Himmelfarb, it’s the difference between “values” and “virtue.” A modern person can have subjective, internal “values” that make them feel good. But unless they have objective “virtues,” they can be still just miserable slime buckets. Can somebody tell me something George W. did to increase public virtue in the US? I’m old and forgetful, so maybe that’s why I can’t think of anything.
On a scale of one to ten. He was about a four on IMO. And that was only because of his response to 911. In that I give him a 8. The rest of his term was a 1. And that is being kind.
His father? The greatest back stabbing “republican” ever hatched into society. Pure globalist.
The greatest mistake RR ever made was to let his ass into the administration.
STFU, you chimp.
In every one of those photos he’s whispers, “I’ll do everything I can to keep you out of prison”.
is dependent on the character of its citizens.
Then quit being a putz.
More of this “we are in this together...” bs. I am NOT in anything with you or anyone else.
I have had enuff of the posturing, virtue signalling and kabuki theater over a freakin cold.
You ain’t helping, Dub, go paint something.
