(CNN)Former President George W. Bush will release a book of 43 portraits of immigrants in conjunction with an exhibition on the value of American immigration at the George W. Bush Presidential Center that will feature the paintings.

The book from Bush, a prolific amateur painter, will be titled "Out of Many, One" and will publish in March, according to a statement from the book's publisher, Crown. "Through powerful four-color portraits—personally painted by the President himself—and their accompanying stories, OUT OF MANY, ONE reminds us of the countless ways in which America has been strengthened by the individuals who have come here in search of a better life," the statement continued. In the book's introduction, Bush expressed hope that his book would help present immigration as a unifying, uplifting issue.

Yep. He did not care to do anything to really fix the problem. Only virtue signal how good it was to ignore the law and safety of the American people.

Somebody should release 43 mugshots of illegal aliens who have murdered Americans. It would not be hard to find 43 hundred of those mugshots.

Is this the same George Bush that failed miserably at enforcing laws on the books to help the rich get richer by allowing in an unlimited number of people who would work for $4 an hour at the expense of the general population?
The same George Bush that stole the 4th amendment?

That George Bush?

It used to be that criticizing W on freerepublic would get you violently flamed, if not booted off. Especially if you criticized w’s Iraq War. I was only a lurker, but had friends who were scorched by the flames

W was treated like a GOD by a lot of freepers. And it was sacriligeous to call him out for blunders or stupidity. Remember the sarcastic Hannity line that Freepers spouted like robots? “Right, it’s Bush’s fault”. For these folks, NOTHING was Bush’s fault

Early on in the 2016 election cycle , quite a few Freepers were incensed that Trump had the audacity to remind people that 911 happened on Bush’s watch. Trump said it was ridiculous to claim “ Bush kept us safe” , while ignoring that Bush was president when 911 happened

Same as you guys. We thought he was better than Gore/Kerry, and he did cut taxes... and appoint Alito. But other than that, he was and is a disaster. The Bushes, father and son, did a lot of damage to the country and are bear large responsibility for the country’s sorry state. I remember well how great things were during the Reagan years, and how the country very much seemed to be headed in the right direction after RR’s two terms. Reagan’s greatest mistake was caving to the GOP establishment and accepting GHWB on the ‘80 ticket.

Yeah, gotta admit he sure had me fooled.

I know an injured Iraq war vet and his family that Bush has kept in touch with. That says good things about him as a person, but he never should have been POTUS.

Seems like the GOP is just incapable of nominating good candidates unless a Trump or a Reagan manages to override the system.

The message these idiots are trying to convey is that traditional Americans do not have the genetic capability to maintain a civilization without an infusion of genetic help from people who have never built a civilization.
