A friend of mine created this site as a way to say thank you to George W. Bush for doing hard things and taking the heat for keeping America safe from terrorism after the 9/11 attacks.

The site has counter that only counts your thank you one time, so please send your e-friends to the site to click the thank you button. They also have a place where you can leave a message. He's saving the messages and wants to present them to W.'s Presidential Library on September 11, 2011.
He tried to reform Social Security, but no one stood beside him. That set the tone for his remaining years.
He allowed all sorts of stupid myths to persist until they became 'common wisdom' and urban legends.
He never opened up a national news service - a Pravda - if that's what you mean. (Obama will, if he needs to, but he already has the press fawning all over him, and NPR and PBS totally in the tank to carry his water).
He socialized the banking system to a degree never before seen in this country.
Yeah, you got me there. He got sucker-punched on that one.
He did not make an effort to connect with the people.
With a disdainful (to say the least) press, his amiable side was rarely revealed. I still blame the press.
I do not underestimate the effect of the democrat controlled press or the ineptitude of McCain, yet Bush bears most of the responsibility for allowing the dems to go unchecked.
And McCain, you may agree, would probably have been twice the "disaster" you figure Bush to have been. As for Bush, it seems to me he was credited with outsmarting the Democrats in Congress over several recent issues. Maybe that's not saying much, considering the caliber of the Congressional leadership.
“....He allowed all sorts of stupid myths to persist until they became ‘common wisdom’ and urban legends.

He was the President of the United States. All he had to do was address the nation on a regular basis. Go over the heads of the congress critters and talking heads. He did not do that.
Reagan had a hostile press, but he spoke to the people and they understood him.
He expanded government and spent like a drunk, i.e., like a democrat.
Granted, McCain would have been a bigger disaster than Bush, but not nearly the disaster 0bama will be.
Over the past 20 years, NEITHER party has been overly concerned with what is best for the average citizen. They both have been jostling for permanent power. The GOP just lost. They were the lesser evil.
Freeped and a big bump! Thank you President Bush.
A good man doesn’t betray his oath of office, his party base and sell his country to the international socialists.
GWB, the president who killed the golden goose. May he rot in He+l
“The comments will be posted by a human editor; the garbage comments will go into the circular file.”
Well the site will be just like Bush and his RINO cult of Personality followers, dishonest.
All heil GWB, republican socialist, scumbag.
The definition for BDS is a person who is unable to see Bush as he really is.
That just about covers all RINO Bushoniods here on FR.
Bush sold us out to socialism! Get real.

Oh well I’m late.
Thanks for pardoning Evan Vela...oh wait you didn’t, NM.
I hope he at least had to decency to have one of his dogs leave a surprise for Berry.
Over 15,000 now!!
Bandwidth at capacity. I’ll try later.
Says it all - Well maybe you could have added in all the jobs he and his cohorts shipped to the Third World - plus driving down wages in this country, and leaving a number of states close to bankruptcy with his open borders policies.
The bandwidth had to be upgraded, but the site should be working properly now. Over 18,000 unique thank yous counted now!
“Well the site will be just like Bush and his RINO cult of Personality followers, dishonest.”
YOU are being dishonest SP. The purpose of the site is CLEARLY stated on the front page. Start your own Bash Bush site and open it up for bile. Or, just visit the hundreds and hundreds of message boards that appear to be dedicated to 24/7 BDS.
BDS is discribed as a person who cannot precieve Bush as he really is, and you and the other cult followers fit the ticket.
I’m not a cult follower. Read some of the comments posted on the M1A site. Folks can say thanks and disagree with the man at the same time.
You misrepresented what the site is about, but are not man or woman enough to own up to that.
I was not misrepresenting what the site represents, I was replying to anothers post concerning the site, the person who posted the thread. He posted that they were taking out ANY posts that weren’t praising hier Bush.
So go back and read what I was replying to before you get your undies in a knot.
Enough! Quit being a jerk.
