His silence is deafening and it is obvious why he is not weighing in. One would have to have a very low IQ not to see the partisan hypocrisy. He's received his orders to shut up on the issue from the right wing powers that be. The man without integrity who will forever be the worst POTUS in history...bar none. Keep your low profile Bush Jr. We've seen enough of and heard enough from you to last many lifetimes.
If it's obvious why he's not weighing in, then please explain it to us more dense folks. Who gave them the orders? Why did they do that? What do they stand to gain from GWB being quiet? What do they stand to lose if he doesn't?
All I see is a former President exercising a bit of respect by not intervening on a current political issue that now has ensconsed President Obama.
Why then do you wish Bush to speak out and voice his opinion on this matter? When, if ever, have you been interested in hearing his viewpoints. The partisan hypocrisy is yours. It's not as if Bush has been traveling the country weighing in on national issues since he left office, so why do you demand that he do so now? To help out your flunkie of a president who blames him for everything under the sun? HAHAHA, last laugh's on you, buddy.
Your missing the point and I've already explained it more than once on this very thread. Is it that difficult for you to follow a thread? Next time, I'll drop bread crumbs to leave a trail.
It seems to me to be an altogether stupid position to take that liberal journalists shouldn't want to hear what conservative politicians have to say. They're journalists, for heaven's sake. Of course they would like George W Bush to weigh in on this issue. His comments would be NEWS. Their job is reporting and commenting on NEWS.
The MSM hasn't "reported the news" or investigated since Obama started campaining for POTUS. They certainly haven't done it since. Now all of the sudden the only way to do that is to bait a fmr. President to weigh in on a controversial and devisive topic? Sorry, GW has more class than that. Something Obama could have learned before he opend his mouth and then back-peddled. Nope the news is that Obam had an opportunity to both defend the First Amendment AND the sensitivities of Americans on this matter during his Rhamadam dinner address. He didn't, instead he showed his usual weak spine seeking approval rather than being a leader.

Where did you hear about the Boxing Day Tsunami? Wasn't on the news? Where did you hear about the Tiger Woods scandal? Wasn't on the news?
Where did you hear about the Ted Stevens plane crash? Wasn't on the news?
Where did you hear about the earthquake in Haiti? Wasn't on the news?
Where did you hear about the flooding in Pakistan? Wasn't on the news?
Where did you hear about the Ft Hood shootings? Wasn't on the news?
If you're going to make ridiculous assertions, try to do it in a way they can't be easily refuted.
And again, it's absolutely stupid to think that just because a journalist leans to the left, that they wouldn't be interested in what conservative politicians have to say about various issues.

Very good post. You hit on something I haven't thought about. Obama truly did waste a moment to side with the majority of American's, and he blew it, all in the name of audience approval. Once again, the President forgets that the "audience" is the American people, and it is they who decide his fate. This "Constitutional Professor" of ours really botched the message badly, which is disturbing because the mosque controversy is not even a Constitutional issue.
I think Bush should hold out with any response to the pseudo mosque controversy until lefty journalists collectively soil their britches in public and begs forgiveness.
This is an issue of zoning, of funding, questions of the ideology of the Imam, and the respect some are asking the Muslims of NYC, including Imam Ruf, to show for the community as a whole. There is and has not been any violation of the First Amendment nor of human rights.
What is it that particularly alarms you about the ideology of Imam Rauf?

I think you missed her point. She seemed to be stating that the MSM haven't put a solid foot forth in investigating this President, not that they haven't reported the news at all.
I think you meant the ERROR of Obama. Everything about him is a mistake and a stain on America.
Yes, thanks. That's works even better.

Oh, NOW you want to hear from Bush? Why? Aren't you one of those who says the P/VP should keep their mouths shut?
Show me a 'Lefty' journo that's still employed by a major network since the Akre's case.
Oh dear. Those are ALL leftists I linked to.
