Or Bush didn’t want to be “SJC’ed” at the dinner, and have Obambi throw barbs at him, talking about how Bush “couldn’t get him”...like Bambi did in the SOTU address a year ago to the justices..

“Also - the drinking game should involve drinking the official celebratory drink “Bin Laden’s” - two shots and a splash of water.”

I realize he can’t do this publically, but I hope privately W. is telling 0, in no uncertain terms, to stick it.

Very smart for Bush. Everytime BO gets a Republican in front of him giving a speech, BO rips into the Republican, witness what he did to Paul Ryan.

From all reports, Odumbo has taken a little instruction from the restraint of a President who is a real class act and has decided not to speak at Ground Zero. Perhaps we will be spared yet another campaign speech based on death and destruction.

May God Bless George W. Bush. He is still leading by example.

As to my personal feelings on the matter, I wouldn’t want to see W anywhere near Obama for any reason.

It’s like when Bush met with the families after 9/11, IN PRIVATE AND WITH NO CAMERAS. No way the Obamessiah would pass up a photo op like that.

So let me ask a question. What do you suppose would incite muslims worldwide more? A photo of a d.e.d. bin laden? or the sight of G W Bush CELEBRATING his death at Ground Zero?

And don’t you think that obama knows this full well? Or do you think he has suddenly found a soft spot in his heart for Bush?

Think about it.

In all fairness, Obama is going by there to help build the mosque.

President Bush, thank you. There is no way you should appear by the side of this awful man as he attempts to steal the glory earned by the SEAL's work. I may not have agreed with everything you did, but I respect your choice here sir. God bless you and your bride.

Pres. Bush should go and teach the American citizen that it was his policies that led to the reason why the current President is here today. It is high time that good people reclaim the bully pulpit, not hide out of some sort of perverted "honor code". That is not a leader, just some guy who just wants to be loved and "respected".

Republicans are one of the weakest and dumbest creatures on the face of this earth. No wonder we have a fickle government/foreign policy and a population that has no direction.

Imagine Obama as a former president, I can see Obama, Carter and Clinton as the three stooges of ex-presidency.

GWB may be worried that AQ would find the GZ target too tempting if both he and BHO were standing there at the same time.

I can’t remember if it was tv local news or radio that I heard yesterday that Guiliani was going to give a speech here in MI (maybe college graduation?) vs the Ground Zero thing.
