Great post, thank you.

I am disgusted at the haters here on Free Republic. President Bush was not my favorite president, but he was better than Johnson, the peanut farmer from Georgia, Clinton and that arrogant pos former occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Media: the only good Republican is a dead Republican. George Bush is an example of a patriotic American and how NOT to do business with Democrats. Both can be true at the same time. As mentioned on Howie Carr’s radio show earlier, thank God Bush and not Dukakis was president when Saddam invaded Kuwait

Haiti was the Clinton/Bush Foundation. He was not the saint everyone is pretending he was.

are you implying that bush had some involvement in the assassination of JFK? If so, you are an idiot. If not, I apologize.

I agree, that is the proper perspective by which we should measure him and the rest of our presidents.

Likewise, ‘43 saved us from man-bear-pig and the long horse face.

Thanks again Kaslin.

I/we can always depend on you to post relevant articles with your usual timeliness, skill and precision, leaving the usual snide remarks and asides for others to provide.

We humans are neither perfect nor without fault but as is written scripture, it is the Lord who raises up kings and emperors to rule over us and especially in what I firmly believe to be His City on a hill, He chooses our leaders for very specific reasons: sometimes to get us through especially troubling times, such as George Washington, the man God would choose to lead our land through the perilous Revolution; the era just prior to and during the Civil War, God placed Abraham Lincoln as our leader (some here might despute his qualifications); Geo. H.W. Bush as mantle bearer following the great Ronald Reagan (no one person could follow Reagan and bear up but he did,.........for one term); then, Geo. W. Bush, whom I believe of the choices Americans were given, him or Al Gore, the better choice to be sitting in office on 9/11.

I personally believe God allowed the anti-American, godless heathen, Obama to bring those of us who have sat in church (or not) and listened to watered down Christianity at best or the blatant paganism of Social Justice, when our fathers, grandfathers or g.grandfathers would have run those scam artists out of the pulpit but we reap what we sow, so here we are with the results and as some in our family, friends, co-workers, etc. refer to Trump as “unpresidential,” “profane,” and worse, preferred the lying harridan Hillary, the Socialist nut Bernie, or worse yet, look longingly back to the “Manchurian Candidate,” Obama!

Yes, God does indeed place the rulers we need and/or deserve at the time, knowing Trump to be the man God has chosen or allowed to lead us at this trying time.

I watched the entire ceremony today at the Capitol.
VP Pence’s Eulogy was so personal and moving.
Thanks for the post.

I started listening to Rush many years ago when my radio dial just happened to land on his show. I was more captivated by the uniqueness of his balls-to-the-wall approach, his informed sarcasm , and his outright mockery of Bill Clinton early in his Administration. But it occurred to me over the years, that as perfectly as he had the Dems figured out, he had yet to figure the Republicans out, and to foresee how the two parties were effectively becoming a Uniparty-—for awhile he seemed to be showing that he was not necessarily all-in for all Republicans, but eventually he reverted back to his hyper-partisanship.I haven’t listened to him for nearly ten years, because he’s basically become another cheerleader , like Hannity. The only reliably independent host in any media is Tucker Carlson. He does not suffer fools in any party gladly. And since GHW’s death has at least not succumbed to the high-minded nonsense now heard by just about everyone, “Left” AND “Right”.

agree and most don’t remember that the Dems held both the House by 30 to 70 seats and the Senate. He was a WWII combat pilot, I believe flew over 100 missions and could have just dodged it and gone on to college-I doubt many of those criticizing him here did that.

RIP to a good man

My memories. He lost to Clinton. Different world if he doesn’t choke

Gotta remember he was in a three-way race with Ross Perot, who foreshadowed the whole Trump Movement. If Ross was a sane individual who could have stuck to his guns he would have won.

Read My Lips was a deal ender. Even without the media bashing GHWB about the head and neck over not knowing the price of a gallon of milk.
