“What do you suppose that President, renowned four-star general, Eisenhower thought of that!”
He would have thought that you had shorted him one star.
I am astonished that you are correct and that I hadn't known, and don't retrospectively remember having known, that.
Interesting to learn in Wiki that George Washington was in 1976 posthumously promoted to the rank of "General of the Armies of the United States."

“The fact remains that Bush saved millions of lives, not just the 50 million Muslims he brought freedom to, but the 30 million Africans he helped to save from AIDS.

He never got recognition for one of the most successful foreign aid initiatives ever, certainly not the Nobel Peace Prize President Obama won for doing nothing in 2009. Bush’s accomplishment should be better known.

A decade ago, Africa was literally dying. While the rest of the world advanced through free market reforms in the last two decades, Africa was left out, in no small part because so many of its people were either dying of AIDS or expecting to die. This curse made development or hope in the future nearly impossible.”

God bless and protect George W. Bush and Laura
always.

He’s never needed lamestream acclaim or notice; as
the good and decent man he is, he intuitively knows
his place and what a caring believer is called to do
on this earth where he can.

Yet this blatant lack of even the smallest notice or
praise for the truth by them only continues to prove
to the rest of the world how small and petty the media,
especially the American press, truly are.
