“a peace rooted in justice”

Like justice for Hillary, Comey, Brennan, Lerner.

The Left vented so much hatred on Bush during his 8 years, he must have really taken it personally. He seems to have Stockholm syndrome.

The libtards pretty much took over as the establishment in the 60s. A lot of even ‘conservatives’ since then orient themselves through a fundamentally libtard worldview and set of assumptions.

There is a better way — the way of empathy, and shared commitment, and bold action, and a peace rooted in justice,” Bush said in the statement. “I am confident that together, Americans will choose the better way.”

Hear! Hear! Dang it. If only he could've President, none of this would've happened because he would've demonstrated that better way. But wait a minute. Wasn't he President when that black guy got dragged to death behind a truck and demonicRATS blamed it on him?

RE:”How can the future not be better? They have new, free TVs, Gucci bags, computers, clothes... America, the land that just keeps on giving.”

Sometimes to get justice you have to take what should be yours, especially when it comes to white privilege.

To make an omelet eggs must be broken.

A great statesmen like GWB realizes that.

It's why the media moved 180 degrees on this, they used to call him the chimp

Moderate ‘conservatives’ these days mean gimps and punching bags.

Egads, talk about a buzzword salad of feel-good meaningless babble.

Things like that made GWB see the errors in his ways.

He see’s his redemption in BLM and antifa. We must too.

Repent your white privilege YESTERDAY, white fascist !.

Don’t be surprised if GWB is alongside Biden at the Floyd funeral.

This isn’t about ‘systemic racism’. This is about the tragic actions of one specific cop, in a Democrat-run city, in a Democrat-run state. Last weekend there were 82 shootings, and 22 fatal shootings in Chicago - at least two in areas I used to ride my bike as a kid. That’s a commonplace occurrence in Chicago, and I seldom hear it mentioned by the MSM, don’t hear GW Bush or Romney or the Hollywood crowd etc. commenting on how tragic it is, and don’t see people on the left donating ‘bail money’ for those involved. This virtue signaling is out of place and hypocritical.
