Me neither. It's been 7 years since this man left the highest office in the land, and he has made hardly any public appearances. In fact, you can count on one hand how many times he has been seen, and heard, in public.
I find this strange because he was practically worshipped by Republicans for 8 years, his deep Christian faith, his hawkish military adventurism in Iraq, and his defense of traditional marriage had the entire conservative base in the U.S. practically swoon on his every spoken word.
Now all you hear is the sound of crickets. Why is he not out firing up the base on behalf of his brother's flagging aspirations for President? Very, very strange that a man who once had rock star status with the conservative base is now completely forgotten.
Why is this?
I saw him bicycling with some vets to raise money for some charity.
I see this thread is full of the usual suspects. Monday morning quarterbacks spouting revisionist history from msnbc. If any president should quietly fade away, it should be Obama. Unfortunately, his narcissistic personality won't allow that and we'll have to suffer his monosyllabic incoherences for who knows how long.
Which makes it better. He does something just for the sake of doing something good. Not to push some agenda.
I am no fan of Bush the president but unlike Clinton he is a decent guy.
People have always had that opinion of Bush, believing he is a decent guy but a terrible President. Contrary, Clinton was a great President but has questionable character.

Then you have Trump, who is a terrible human being AND would make a horrendous president. Seriously, even the Bush presidency (the worst in history) would look downright successful next to a Trump fiasco.
And that's your frontrunner!
Thanks to right-wingers, the GOP is de-evolving right before our eyes. At this rate, a literal clown will win New Hampshire in 2020, instead of a figurative one (Trump).

You won't have this problem when obuma is out. You will get reminded everyday, everywhere. From Mt Rushmore to every local street sign.

And what does this post have to do with George W. Bush?
Yeah, if you ignore the 100k lives he extinguished in Iraq, Bush is a swell guy.
He's responsible for more deaths than 100K, even the most conservative estimates are 125K deaths resulting from the invasion he ordered, and that is most certainly on the low end of the death meter. Other sources are around 500 to 600K. He is also responsible for the migration of over 5 million people, who were forced to flee for their lives due to sectarian fighting, many losing everything they had.
And then there is those ISIS fella's….
