(CNN)Former President George W. Bush will release a book of 43 portraits of immigrants in conjunction with an exhibition on the value of American immigration at the George W. Bush Presidential Center that will feature the paintings.
The book from Bush, a prolific amateur painter, will be titled "Out of Many, One" and will publish in March, according to a statement from the book's publisher, Crown. "Through powerful four-color portraits—personally painted by the President himself—and their accompanying stories, OUT OF MANY, ONE reminds us of the countless ways in which America has been strengthened by the individuals who have come here in search of a better life," the statement continued. In the book's introduction, Bush expressed hope that his book would help present immigration as a unifying, uplifting issue.

Nothing wrong with proper measured legal immigration.
I don’t know if the tax payers realize it, but they are footing the bills for each female illegal to have an average of 5 kids a piece. They are then paying for food, medical care and enough schools to house them in. That’s in addition to subsidized housing and subsidized mortgages. That is only about 25% of what we end up paying for. They increase exponentially. The tax payers can’t afford anymore. The piggy bank is empty. Bush needs to pay for them all if he wants them in here and house them on Bush property.
Lord the crap that came down the pike on this very forum over this PC idiot
Those so blind they would not see
“The guy never met a job he didn’t want to outsource”
Yes, The bulk of US companies moving to China happened under Bush, not Obama. + Housing crash, + Iraq fiasco
If memory serves, a few of the 911 hijackers were illegals - they were living in the US on expired visas
But, but, but “Bush kept us safe!” Yeah, right. Unless you were in the Twin Towers.
And no, I’m not a “truther”. I’m only saying Bush didn’t protect us from 911.
It happened on his watch - nine months into his presidency. It’s on his record, just like the depression is on Hoover’s.
Do you think these fine fellows will turn in their guns?
Immigrants are legal permanent residents. Many in government and media call illegal aliens “immigrants.” They are wrong. The word “immigrant” is good. The term, “illegal alien” is bad. We must find a way to keep media from contaminating the good word “immigrant!”
Don’t see any tears on the soi boy.
Actually, that’s not a bad rendering. If Bush had made a career of art we’d all be better off
I would probably really like him as a next door neighbor. But current next door neighbor, while a really nice guy, could never handle the presidency and he’d be the first to admit that.
Same here.
God I was so wrong about this doche bag. Not that Gore or Kerry were viable. Terrible terrible family and human beings.
Ditto.
I have a unicorn on black velvet that came from a Mexican vendor in a parking lot in Flint, Michigan that displays better artistry than that.
To me he was good first term. He sucked in his second and now he’s just a tool.
8~)
To me he was good first term.
His first term included the invasion of Iraq - one of the “stupidest” foreign policy decision in US history, according to Trump
Worthless. DOes not lift a finger to help this president.
Someone had to create the crisis in order that obama could exploit it.
Bush and McCain is all it took to sell out the Republican party in a matter of several years.
