Made me cry, especially after listening to O push the race card and the blame card again this week.
Now, down to work. Make sure EVERYONE YOU KNOW is registered to vote NOW. We need to start turning this thing around in 2010. There’s no sitting on the sidelines now. The danger is real.

Yet? Dude, I miss his man so much-I didn’t agree with the spending which I believe was Bush’s attempt to reach across the aisle but his optimism, love of country and our military, and no excuse presidency is such a far cry from the pitiful whiner we are subjected to every day and night.

I hope he knows there are so many millions of us who thank the Lord for him, his thick skin and big balls. He stood up for this country despite the whithering fire from the left dominated media and the traitors in Congress. And most of the attacks were personal as is the want of the left.

God bless him and Laura and the Cheneys-we can only hope that adults get control again. And soon.

i love president bush and laura. diginity, class and down to earth, in other words a true american.

what we have now is a very dangerous person for america. i have never felt so uneasy for my country in my 58 years of life.

i also thought that the black leaders of this country had finally gotten past race and were leading black americans to a color blind future, because of all the high positions black america holds, condi rice, collen powell, ect. however, the jeramiah wrights, al sharpton, jesse jackson, etc. have held black america hostage and now with this horrible man, obamba as president, if things don’t change we may be looking at some kind of race war in america, GOD forbid.

what has happened to america? we just have to prevail in 2010 and 2012 or we are done as a nation.

@Amy Proctor: You’re absolutely right about why Obama says we have to rush these huge changes to nearly every facet of American life.

You’ll recall that with the stimulus bill we couldn’t wait. It had to be done NOW even though it was days after it was passed that Obama bothered to sign it. And, most of the “stimulus” won’t even take place until years from now.

Same with health care “reform.” Rush to get a bill through before the public finds out what is in it. And the plan won’t even take effect for years.

The reason you are seeing the chance in the generic congressional poll is the same reason you are seeing a drop in Obama’s approval rating. Regular folks are seeing that Obama is the big spending liberal we all warned that he was.

Folks who got sucked in with the “hope and change” crapola are now getting their eyes opened.

YES!! Yes I miss George W Bush. He never whined, threw sissy pitches or made excuses. When he said, “The buck stops with me” there was never a “but”. There was a “period.”

I miss his humanitarian heart and his belief that tax cuts stimulated the economy. I miss the fact that he honored the unborn and faith in America.

The good news (maybe) is that Obama is such a horrible executor that Republicans have taken a 4 point lead in a generic Congressional poll and I think it’s probable we’ll take the House and Senate back in 2010.

So when you hear Obama say he’s rushing health care because “the American people need it now!”, he’s lying. Something W would never do. He’s lying because he knows his days are numbered and as he continues to spit on America, the rest of us are waiting for the next election to throw the bums out.

Miss him incredibly – miss knowing he is there, guarding the ramparts. I had my differences of opinion with him, but I never ever had to doubt that he loved this country and was proud of it.

@SoCal Chris: I’m glad you enjoyed this post. Interesting that you had a similar emotional reaction to mine when I watch this video. Looking back on those eventful eight years with all we went through can be a bit wrenching. But in a good way.

@J Galt:
[He healed the dishonor Clinton brought to the presidency and showed us courage, conviction and compassion.]

Double amen to that!! And, now we have to look ahead to elect another great President to restore the lost dignity and trust the current administration is causing.

Mike, I love that you post stuff like this, but now I have to get all emotional…it’s hard on me! I miss President Bush so much and this post doesn’t help at all! But, if the point is to point out what we did have, and don’t have now, and can hope to have again in another President (ahem, Gov. Palin), then keep ‘em comin’.

A reporter once asked W to grade his presidency and he replied that he would leave it to the historians…as the historians were still analyzing the first GW after more than 200 years. W offered that he believed the future historians would view him very favorably.
(George Washington was accused of everything including treason by his critics and The Press)

The new socialist-bent, entertainer-in-chief President BHO could learn a lot of personal virtue from his predecessor …of whom he continues to excoriate… BUT keeps rubber stamping a lot of W’s polices.

I believe it took a lot of personal fortitude and conviction to walk into the joint Congress and deliver the 2008 January State of the Union Address — to push for the surge.

Thank you, President Bush, for keeping us safe for 8 years! Now get that book written and give ‘em hell !

While no human is at all perfect, the current socialist-bent, entertainer-in-chief President would be wise to adopt some of W’s leadership attributes — we know BHO is rubber stamping a lot of W’s policies. Policies at which BHO threw excoriating critique from his 3-4 month appearance in the US Senate and from the eternal campaign trail. Additionally, W certainly could have blamed WJC, his predecessor for ALOT (the list is long and distinguished.) Instead, he took the reins and accepted all responsibility and critique — “The buck stops here.”

I suggest that we saw a real profile in courage — when GWB walked into the joint assembly of Senators and Reps to deliver the Jan 2008 State of the Union and push for “the surge.” (No war is fought perfectly — even BHO’s supposed hero Lincoln made many changes and adjustments in prosecuting the Civil War)

A reporter once asked W how he would grade his presidency, he said he wold leave that to the historians as they were still analyzing the first GW…after over 200 hundred years. However, he offered that he sincerely believed these future historians would view him very favorably.

(George Washington was accused of everything including treason by his critics and “The Press”)

Thank you for your service President Bush….now get that first book written!
