‘Miss Me Yet?’: Mystery Surrounds Who Paid for George Bush Billboard (video)
CNN ^ | Feb. 8, 2010

Posted on 02/08/2010 9:27:00 PM PST by Free ThinkerNY

NPR: Internet chatter had led to speculation that it might be an urban myth -- nothing more than clever digital trickery spreading via the Web.

But our friend Bob Collins at Minnesota Public Radio assures us he's seen it with his own eyes: There is a billboard along I-35 near Wyoming, Minn., with a huge photo of former president George W. Bush and this question: "Miss Me Yet?"

Since the Dems blame Bush for everything wrong perhaps we should get him back here ASAP to clean up the mess.

I am sure this sends the public radio types running for their headache pills. But, yes, I miss him already. I started missing him on Jan. 21, 2009. I might not have agreed with everything he did, immigration reform for instance, but I never got the feeling he was trying to destroy our country and bring its people to their knees. And I never doubted that his first priority was to keep us safe.

I think Dubya got far more of a bum rap than he deserved, especially during his last few years. America would have done better to elect Mad Magazine’s iconic idiot Alfred E. Neumann to the White House, than the Bummer.

Ya know, I disagreed with the man on a deal of issues, spending, illegal immigration, .etc, but I never doubted either his love of country, his desire to keep us safe, or the idea he did what he felt was best for the country.

And the fact that I cannot in good conscious say that about the sitting president, that truly scares the hell out of me.

Spongebob could have done a better job then Zero is doing right now. I do miss Bush..he has gotten a bum rap. Bush did one thing that I will always be grateful for, he kept this country safe. Let’s see, with Obama as President, how many times have we been hit already, 3 times..Christmas Day, Ft. Hood, if I’m forgetting another one please let me know. Bush understood we are at War with islamic extremists, Obama on the other hand is too busy bowing to them

I couldn’t agree more. When I see pictures of President Bush and the First Lady, I get a lump in my throat. There were grown ups in the White House then. They both look so mature, dependable, and steady.

Someday, people will line the streets for W, as they did for Reagan. They will remember that he steered them through a very bad time and protected them from very bad people. The media will be shocked then, just as they were when it happened for Reagan. They had no idea how the people really felt.

It figures that the left demands to know who did it so they can start the domestic terrorism against the person who does not share their beliefs.

Share your sentiments. GW had more than a ‘few wars’ going on; and of those; most directed right at him personally. He was humble in his power and he was and always will be, a patriot. Do wish more of our Repub leadership would defend him. What Bush inherited from Clinton, was far worse than the challenges that Obama inherited.

So some Libs actually believed this may be an urban myth? Or is this double-downed joke so as to put a 'bad face' on it. As to the 'mystery'. . .

LOL/ This from the people who still do not challenge the mystery of the 'who' of Obama. . .and the 'where/when/what'; for that matter.

Quoth NPR blogger Mark Memmott (via Drudge):

“At first glance, it would seem to be from some person or group who isn’t thrilled by President Barack Obama’s performance so far — unless it’s a more ironic message from those who didn’t think too much of Bush and want to remind voters about him.”

Yeah, must be the latter possibility.

I wish this would go viral across the nation, when we were searching for hope and true leadership President Bush gave us that hope to prevail against the enemies that prayed for our destruction..

Sadly those enemies still pray...in the Whitehouse.
