President George W. Bush Greeting the troops at Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport earlier today
Allow me this space to write a few words…. I will be the first to say that I did not always agree with President George W. Bush on policy. But I will say this; I did always know, just right where he stood, on all policy matters. For all of his faults while he was in office; the man did one thing right and that was the decision to sacrifice his Presidency for the war on terror. President Bush knew the stakes and knew the he would most likely become a lame duck President. However, that did not bother him and he did what he had to do, to defend this great nation of ours.
Like him or not….President Bush was and still is a leader, he loved our Military and was willing to take the heat of criticism from the left, for the many deaths of our Military’s officers during the Iraqi war.
I may not have voted for him, but I do and will always respect him.
Update: Memeornadum Thread
I DID vote twice for George W Bush, and while not agreeing with everything he did, I agreed with the war on terror. Hell, just look around at the crap going on with radical islam and sharia law, even in THIS country. President Bush was right in identifying our true foe, unlike the idiot in charge today who pussy-foots around the radicals and won’t call them what they are. Thank you, President Bush, for doing the right thing. Also, thank you for all the dignity you brought to the Office of the Presidency. And I love the look of surprise on this soldier’s face! It is PRICELESS! This photographer should receive an award for capturing the instant this brave young man realized whose hand he was shaking. May God bless America.
Well put Sean. 🙂
Thank you, Mr. President. You were my Commander in Chief, and the honor was mine.
