George W. Bush - Thank You!!!



















Dear President Bush,

Thank you for all you have done to preserve, protect, and defend me, my family, and my fellow countrymen from terrorism.

It has been over seven years since we were attacked and three thousand of my fellow Americans were killed. I am truly grateful for the way you have handled one of the most profound crises my country has ever faced. As commander-in-chief, I could not have felt more secure with anyone other than you at the helm.

The events of September 11, 2001 changed the face of America forever. Immediate decisions had to be made, addressing every aspect of securing our land and its people. It's beyond shame that hardly anyone has ever given you the credit deserved for having to have made those incredibly difficult decisions.

You have somehow endured the slings and arrows of the mainstream media, along with, many of those that swallowed their propaganda. All the while as you led the way on national progress, not for ideology, fame, or votes. You found compromises that would move the nation in constant step with our Constitution - which is exactly how it should be done in a democracy. You did not play dictator and force everyone to conform. You were a man of faith and always of your word.

I will miss your wisdom, and your conviction of faith, which will be all the more painful given all the reminders of those that now surround us and lead the national debates.

Thank you for being a man of integrity and an inspirational leader. America is safe because of you. May God bless you and Laura.

One of the first things President Obama did as President was thank George W. Bush "for his service to our nation". That's a proper, mature, and conciliatory tone. One that many of Obama's supporters (I could link to scads of blogs) do not have.

Yes, Thanks for the useless three trillion dollar war in Iraq, a wrecked economy, erosion of our international standing, and so many other things thst will take many years to repair.

But thsnks modt of all for the erosion of our civil liberties and the all encompassing police state that is America today.

I suggest that all Bushies move to Crawford and elect him king of the Nation of Texass.
