Rethinking Bush - and Cheney too
2009-11-11
If you have been reading us for any length of time, you know that we used to make fun of “Dubya” nearly every day…parroting the same comedic bits we heard in our Democrat circles, where Bush is still, to this day, lampooned as a chimp, a bumbling idiot, and a poor, clumsy public speaker.

Oh, how we RAILED against Bush in 2000Â…and how we RAILED against the surge in support Bush received post-9/11 when he went to Ground Zero and stood there with his bullhorn in the ruins on that hideous day.

We were convinced that ANYONE who was president would have done what Bush did, and would have set that right tone of leadership in the wake of that disaster. President Gore, President Perot, President Nader, you name it. ANYONE, we assumed, would have filled that role perfectly.

Well, we told you before how much the current president, Dr. Utopia, made us realize just how wrong we were about Bush. We shudder to think what Dr. Utopia would have done post-9/11. He would have not gone there with a bullhorn and struck that right tone. More likely than not, he would have been his usual fey, apologetic self and waxed professorially about how evil America is and how justified Muslims are for attacking us, with a sidebar on how good the attacks were because they would humble us.

Honestly, we donÂ’t think President Gore would have been much better that day. The world needed George W. Bush, his bullhorn, and his indominable spirit that dayÂ…and we will forever be grateful to this man for that.

As we will always be grateful for what George and Laura Bush did this week, with no media attention, when they very quietly went to Ft. Hood and met personally with the families of the victims of this terrorist attack.

FOR HOURS.

#8  I miss him immensely. No one ever had to tell him to console or go to war. He did what he was supposed to ALL THE TIME. He never dissed queens or led democracies on the wrong path, and as a President, I did not have to expect anything unless he was not fiddeling with a war.

What I have now is the nanny fool wohm has never done any amount of human reasoning since stalin was in power and that was before his birthdate. It is a wall. An impenetrable wall of idiocy.

I have no respect for man, but the child that has been elected has less than anything.

My troops need help and choppers. An easy decision to make if you planned on becoming commander in chief. You no study, you no respect. Me Fu(& you long time commander in chief.

You know who I is.

#7  I certainly didn't always agree w/W but I never questioned that deep down he was a genuine good dude. He didn't have to photo-op like the Boy Wonder does now. I remember him hugging that girl that lost her dad at 9/11, a sincere gesture, not some b.s. night show appearance like Pee-Wee does so often now.

#5  Redneck Jim, hillbuzz is the blog for Hillary Clinton supporters who were sufficiently pissed at the slimy tactics Obama used to win the nomination that they came out in support of McCain in the general election.

Obama isn't and never was 'their man'.

#3  Yup now that they don't dare ridicule THEIR man it's all forgiven.

HELL NO IT'S NOT FORGIVEN you put down a man ten times Super Zero's caliber, and for that , you'll PAY.

Just look at the way the MSM is ignored today, that's the payback.

#1  Go to the link, and read the whole thing.

Then read the comments.

I read to the end, half expecting the worst. But no, the comments are worth the time. Sanity has reared its head, and the hope that we as Americans will come together and prevail against the current horror that presides in the White House and Congress is greatly strengthened. That blog post has made my day.
