Let’s not forget how Europe does wars.

Usually we wait and wait until the enemy starts attacking, then we let them win a bit, then we fight until we are tired, then we just call the US to come over to clean our mess.

That is what happened in WWI, WWII, and the Balkans.

Samah, you are my friend...

Hating George W. Bush is not only dull and unoriginal, but it shows a complete lack of understanding of the world in which we live in.

Here, here!!

Can’t say how history will judge Bush43, but I think come November, no matter who wins, we’ll be longing for an honest leader.

Dang nice article giving President Dubya some well-deserved respect.

History will be kind and gracious to this brave and selfless man!

LOL! That's about right. And also, as the author points out, why the Euroweenies hate the USA and by extension, why they hate GW.

From the article:

"The usual hot air that Washington politicians seem to have made their own. Mr Obama is no different. We’re just too politically correct to say that the only thing refreshing about him is his colour. So we say he’s “bipartisan”, or he’s a “uniter”."

Sorry but I've seen NOTHING of a uniter in Obeyme, and even less in the way of bipartisanship. Bush pushed the uniter deal and the dhimmis turned up their noses. Obeyme doesn't even try.

Of course the dhimmi sheeple are blind to all of this anyway...

I’m not going to bother reading this but GW Bush has been both. He has been a great and sometimes horrible leader. He made some bad decisions and allowed others too much leeway and they made bad decisions. He was better at sticking to doing what was right than making the case for doing what was right such as with Iraq. He spent a lot of money trying to prove he was a compassionate conservative, Africa loves him but what did it get us or him politically? Nothing. He began a debate in which he emphasized conservative divisions on immigration rather than uniting conservatives and moderate Republicans around a security first plan. He nominated two excellent constitutionalist judges Roberts and Alito and managed to get both confirmed. I also think by the end of his term he will have been vindicated on Iraq but at a much higher cost because he did not understand of appreciate the nature of the propaganda war at home.

There were good and bad things. If we can manage to pick up a few seats in the Senate and keep at least parity in the House and win the White House then some of the not so good things may yet be undone and we may yet get Kennedy, Ginsberg, Breyer, or Souter to retire. That would be a win so nice to have but just remember having a court is useless if you can’t get your legislation passed and into law while the court is favorable.

Thanks for the post. The video clip and the article serve up a well reasoned and charming counter-cultural thumb in the eye to the Bush haters. Very enjoyable.

I have no doubts or very few about Bush the man...Bush the father...

I am sure he honestly believes whatever he believes...

I am sure Iraq was totally right in many ways and maybe in all ways....

but Bush has totally failed in his perceived leadership and strength....he has allowed lowlifes to castrate him and he has not responded which has only made him look weaker...

oh, for a thundering speech ...oh for a fierce debate...oh for a little more passion.....

That's a keeper! Watch the video too - especially the interview with the reporter - it's a riot - "Clinton didn't get out of bed in the morning unless a focus group told him it was okay" = also a lot more great remarks on Pres. Bush.

Sad there's no one in this country who'd make such remarks - well, of course, it wouldn't do much good. They'd never get printed.

Thank you so much for this posting. It’s refreshing to here something positive about George W. Bush, even if it has to come from a foreign journalist.

Sure he made some mistakes and there were missteps, could you or anyone else for that matter have done any better under the circumstances?

Finally, it’s about time the world stops listening to the liberal US main stream media and the opposing political party and takes a hard look at the facts and results as they’re know.

History will depict George W. Bush much better than he is currently being portrayed.

Great article and thanks again!

Overall he has been a great leader...Protected this country after 9/11 and is courageous and honest...Have not always agreed with his decisions and wish he had shown some more compassion in his ‘compassionate conservatism’ but he has had a plateful of problems and did the best he could...
