They said he was just a "playboy", yet he married a woman of intelligence, grace, beauty and such inner strength she comforted an entire nation after 9/11/01.
They said he didn't have "political savvy", yet he managed to defeat the incumbent, Democrat governor of Texas, Ann Richards. In fact, he whupped her a$$ (paybacks are he$$, aren't they Ann?)
They said he was a "fratboy", but Americans have seen his seriousness of purpose and respect he has for the office of President.
They said he lacked intelligence, but he continues to confound and confuse those that consider themsevles erudite and sophisticated.
They said that the country was so "divided" after the 2000 election, that he would never be considered "legitimate", yet his approval numbers have been the most consistently high of any President since these polls have been in existence.
They said he couldn't back out of Kyota, but he did.
They said he couldn't back out of the ABM treaty without ostracizing Russia and creating an international incident, but he not only did back out of the treaty he negotiated what is, so far, a successful partnership with that very country.
They said there could not be any bi-partisanship in Washington, but he kept another campaign promise and got an Education package through.
They said he was a "Daddy's Boy" and had to have his Daddy's cronies around him to run the country, but it was he who made the decision to shoot down commercial airlines if necessary on 9/11
They said he "wore his faith on his sleeve" (like this was a bad thing), but he was the one who invoked God to help heal a nation torn by tragedy
They said he was a poor orator and made fun over his "garbled syntax", yet who will forget his extemporaneous remarks with the firefighters, his address to Congress after 9/11, his speech in the National Cathedral, or his State of the Union address?
They said he lacked foreign relations experience, but he quickly assembled a coalition to fight terrorism after 9/11.
They condescendingly said he "lacked gravitas", but he was the Commander-in-Chief who decided on a war plan for Afghanistan and who, with strength, patience and purpose, continues the fight against terrorism to protect America.(oh, and remember "quagmire"?)
They said he could not "fill the screen", but on the day of remembrance for those lost on 9/11, no one could take their eyes off him as he comforted the families and talked to the nation.
They said he was a unilateralist, but he challenged the UN and shook those assembled to the core with their own words.
They said he is a "cowboy". Well, maybe they got one right. I say, what's wrong with that?
The latest and lamest? Now they say he is "limited". Seems like the only ones limited are the reporters and various pundits who write this stuff.
And to think, this man has only been in office less than 2 years.
God Bless President George W. Bush.
SUPER, gramho!! It's even better all put together than it was in pieces!
Every point you make is so very true, and you say them all so well! THANK you!!
The fact that he continually confounds the elitists reminds me that President Bush possesses Godly wisdom because he has asked for it. The leftists will never figure him out.
God Bless President Bush and his Beautiful First Lady Laura!!!!
