Mods, could we please have a tribute thread to Pres. Bush that’s free of hateful, vulgar and vicious comments? Thank you for anything you can do.
"So this is the message to our liberal friends in the media: you didn't beat this president, he beat you. You and your allies in Washington failed time and again to take this good man down. Indeed, he was elected and re-elected despite your historic efforts to the contrary."
Start a prayer thread for GWB. One of those “Pray for our Nation and our outgoing President” deals.
Problem solved.
Happy to help.
Thank you for this. I for one appreciate your steadfast support of our President and my son’s Commander in Chief.
Thanks STAR, for the ping to this excellent editorial.
President Bush was the President of the United States from January 2001 to January 2009. Prayers to his family.
I am not without some serious criticisms but I must say that in such a critical time for our nation President George W. Bush engaged in the fight in the WOT when just about any of the Demagogues would have found endless excuses to do less. Think Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, John Edwards, Hillary, Obama, et al....
So, yes, we have been fortunate in many ways to have GW as POTUS, and although I also see serious flaws in policies, I would take him over any of the leading presidential contenders (and Presidents) we have had in the past 20 years...... so that’s saying A LOT.
Fare tee well, Mr. President. I may not have agreed with everything that you did, but you did make tough decisions and you kept the Jihadis at bay.
tee = thee
GWB approval >> ‘rat Congress approval. QED.
I hate to think of what a post 9/11 world would have looked like if this man had not been in charge - something like Europe I imagine.
God Bless him he is a honorable man!

In 6 months to two years, I predict most Americans will be looking back on the Bush years as the good old days. Socialism is ugly and it always leads to misery and murder. It is on it’s way, folks, be wary.
Starwise, thank you for this thread and the ping.
Through some very tough times, our president did not waver from his beliefs.
God Bless President and Laura Bush.
Thank you for being here for us, Mr President!
I hope so. It would be a pleasant change. Sometimes this forum reads like Duh. Unlike his predecessor, President Bush put his country first.
Thank you Mr. Bush for being a good man and making some very hard decisions that kept us safe.
Darn right! God help and protect us .. God have mercy on us.
I loved this President — George W. Bush. Perfect, no, but he was always well intentioned and a very good man. He will be sorely missed by more than is obvious at this time.
For me, the most important thing to take away from this presidency is that GWB kept the country safe from attack during his watch. That was no small task!
I wish President George W. Bush and Laura Bush all the best in their “retirement.” They deserve it.
