President Bush knows that the president has to remain presidential. However, he could have have some cabinet members or spokesperson out there fighting.
Bush-
Could have:
Shown up for the funeral of the 2 star General
Mentioned he would be praying and holding a personal vigil
for the reporter that was murdered
Mentioned he was working with Rick Perry to help secure
the Texas border
So much Bush and others could say (back handed slap at the Demon rats)- but no.....they are in bed with the rats
