We re attempting to stop what he stood for with Trump. He was an anti American globalist.

Agree! For me it is like/hate for George Bush (I voted Ross Perot) but like I posted....You make it to 94 then you have my respect. You must be very OK on some levels. His boys were dumber and weaker and got us involved in eternal wars in useless Muslim nations.

No, and the media will celebrate like they did with McCain. Check out the smiling faces on CNN when it is announced.

He happened to be President when the Berlin Wall came down.

Other former Presidents would’ve rolled up their sleeves and helped the Soviets rebuild it.

RIP, Mr. President. Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

With all due respect,

“Thank you for your service to our nation??”

What are you talking about...What are the things he did for which you feel compelled to thank him?

I posted the source. And I noted that all the text is excerpts from the post. Before accusing anyone of crap, it’s a crappy thing for someone to jump on someone and to make false accusations, and ask for a source that is already posted, if one were smart enough to read it. That is something CNN does, I would expect something better from a freeper. Sheesh.

I’m not claiming to be a hero, far from it, just reporting facts. I noted that the text I posted is from the article I linked to in the post. If you knew anything about history, you would already know it. There was a lot of controversy about his actions in WWII. I don’t blame him for the loss of two planes, as this was wartime. But I do blame him for being less than truthful on a number of things, and he did give conflicting accounts of what actually happened and never set the record straight.

His military service as a Navy aviator during WWII comes to mind.

The first Iraq war comes to mind, but he stopped short of Bagdhad, and didn't finish the job.

The job was to liberate Kuwait. Job well done. He wasn't captive of the neocons bent on world conquest like his simpleton son.

May God have mercy on his soul. And may we all give thanks for his many years of service to this nation.

If you're going to commit to going to war with an adversary, you must go for the kill. Doing anything less, virtually guarantees you'll face him again in the future.

That is warfare 101.

If Bush The Elder had taken Saddam's head on the first go-round, there might never have been a Gulf War II.
