I think Newsweek has misinterpreted Bush's politeness and a deeply held belief that the office of the President, and by extension all former presidents, should be accorded a measure of respect with friendship.

Exactly!
But .. an ingredient the libs have no concept of is that the President, as a Christian, is just doing what Christians do - fishing for lost souls.

Bush doesn't waste any time with Clinton doing things like hitting on babes. My guess is that it's Bush' sense of humanity and Christian values being witnessed by the metrosexuals from Newsweek.

I agree with you. One can be a gentlemen, by treating someone with respect, but never be a true friend.
I seriously doubt it if Bill Clinton has one "true friend" in the world. Instead he has hundreds of acquaintances plus people who he is either using, or they are using him, all the while both are feigning friendship. But a true friend is doubtful.

I agree. Newsweek knows that they and all of the other leftists have to bow down to BJ, but they are surprised that Republicans have a sense of dignity that keeps them from treating the Stainmaster like a piece of garbage.

BJ Klintoon is surrounded by hundreds who are literally scared to death to cross him.

Klintler only liked the new Oval Office rug because there were no scootch-marks on it.

Care to donate to the tsunami fund ? Can you spare some change for Hillarys reelection fund while you are at it ? Brilliant !
To: wagglebee
Clinton can be a very valuable tool for Republicans. We just need to pull him out at the right times.

And you need to ask yourself why they'd take the time to do that.

I would guess that Mr. Bush has nothing but disdain and disgust for Mr. Clinton as a human being, but he realizes that it is appropriate to treat x42 with some
public respect as a former president. Nothing more, nothing less.
It's similar to the way I treat my liberal, dimwitted sister-in-law. She doesn't deserve my respect, but I do it for my husband's sake.

Exactly..They are forgetting that Bush is a true gentleman and that they are working for a common cause.

If you are referring to the article and Carl Limbacher's NewsMax writings, I agree.

Smart politics. Dems can't criticize too much as they would be criticizing their favorite boy.
Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

Lemmesee if I can rationalize this. Bush said he wanted to restore the presidency. Clintoon was not removed from office, thusly still in the ex-prez club. So, to rehabilitate the office, you must also rehabilitate the ex. There's a downside to compassion, I guesss...

After Clinton remarked how much he liked the new Oval Office rug......President Bush whacked him upside the head with a rolled-up newspaper and said, "Down, boy! Not on the new rug."
