George Bush has personal integrity up to a point but he also laid the groundwork for Obama. Bush reportedly dissed the Constitution as a barrier to his expanded government programs and greased the skids for Obama.

Failing to criticize unconstitutional federal acts that harm America is misguided IMO. Criticizing the acts of those holding the office of President, Congress, or the Supreme Court does not “harm” the office itself, but it helps the American People to take a more objective view of the acts of those that hold those positions.

After all, these people are working for the American People who should make every effort to verify and scrutinize and verify what those in these powerful offices are doing.

Bush’s emphasis is wrong by elevating the rule of man IMO. The thing that should be held sacred are not the acts of those in office, but the Constitution, America’s rule of law and only legal bulwark of freedom from tyranny.

I completely agree with this.

How I wish all former presidents who are still alive would come together to oppose this illegal sweeping amnesty that threatens the fabric of the country. There comes a time when people, like them, who are in a position to make a real difference should come together for the good of the country and make a united statement.
