Thanks. What matters most is that GWB was and is a class act. He could have been blasting Obama from here to Christmas and with plenty of ammunition but Dubya has chosen to be every minute a former President acting with grace and dignity.

Unlike his mean little predecessor Jimmah Carter.

Nah. The base loves and worships them. The more vacations, the better. (They’re special, ya know?)
