He's a liar and a coward.

But he gave up golf for the troops!

...but Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeds and Rice and Powell and Rove and the rest of the crime family LIED!!!

We all fell for the BS right down to those kindergarten scribbles presented the the United Nations that were supposed to represent WMD locales. Welcoming home the troops?...they ought to spit in his eye!

Im sorry, but you cant fake this. You cant fake George W. Bush's view and respect for our military. With Barry, it has the feel of a publicity stunt for photo ops. You dont get that realness feeling to it.

While I disagree with some of Bush's ideology and actions, he earned a lot of respect from me for his love for the military servicemen.

God bless George W. Bush and I have to give it to him for letting Barry do his thing and not getting involved. A president has enough fire coming from all directions usually that they dont need an ex-prez to chime in. Though Barry has only recently really started to get much heat from the media but thats a different story.

George and his wife have been very classy. I think they are wrong on some things politically, but they are classy.
If you say so.

I'm not willing to overlook that he got us stuck in a pointless, un-winnable war just because he took some nice pictures with soldiers.

Support the troops; don't send them to die by the thousands in a pointless war.

Garbage.
Bush put them in harm's way, refused option of showing returning caskets, then visits them as they return wounded in ways you can't see?

He deserves Den Haag for that crap.

Funny how you try to honor Bush for seeing the troops he sent to die because "they tried to kill my daddy" or "a holy war".

Bush doesn't give a damn about human life or the troops. If he did, him and darth cheney never would have sent them into iraq. Obama has done the most patriotic thing of this war, getting our heroes out of iraq where they never should have been in the first place, and getting them out of afghanistan as well next year to where they belong,.........Home
What about all those "darth" Democrats who voted to take action against Iraq?

Too bad he didn't make that choice about 10 years ago.
Too bad Obama didn't, either.
