I don't think GWB is always wrong, and I am happy that R&C will get out. As somebody once said about Jack Benny's 40th birthday, I didn't think I would live to see the day. I used to defend Bush in a big way, but now when he does something that is just wrong, I will call him on it.

And don't forget former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Marine General Peter Pace, a patriot's patriot, who became 'politically incorrect' in the view of the Senate, and rather than back him up and fight for another term as Chairman, GWB sent word that it was time for General Pace to retire. That was just cowardice.

THANK YOU!

Exactly my point. He DID make stupid mistakes. I said that.
But he ALSO has done some GOOD too. We do not have to defend the bad but we sure don’t have to throw away the good either.

I wasn’t given a chance to vote for a conservative candidate for president, McCain was already chosen. I would have voted for a real conservative.
I would never have thrown out my conservative stance to
“punish the republican party” either. Nor am I going to stop my conservative views but pray for a strong person to stand for us in the future for president.
I am not going to blame President Bush for little O getting in office. He was voted in by people alive and dead and a few dogs, cats and other assorted pets.
My point, it is over, done.

Our country needs our prayers. Shooting our mouth off about who is to blame will leave us stuck in the past with nothing to gain.

Sorry for the rant.

You are 100 percent correct. That comic strip tells the truth in a way that cannot be refuted by any sane American that has witnessed the past eight years of GWB.

Thanks for posting this:

General Pace called homosexuality "immoral", and for that Democrats wanted him crucified.

President Bush not only made him retire, but forced him to issue a statement that he "regretted" the remark.

Sigh.
