I have to say, of course the President gave another amazing spreach but GBush was really, really

[glennward]

good. His remarks were beautiful. Kudos to him...and I am not a fan.

1. More hypocrisy

Some of the most violent people in the history of the world saying we need to end violence.

No lives matter to Georgie boy just the green backs so him and his buddies can live fatter.

[misterhighwasted]

3. Yes. And he naturally dances to the rythum..but that's just George.

Maybe a bit out of place for the moment..but oh well.

[teenagebambam]

4. I saw him speak live

at Washington National Cathedral, right after Katrina. I was about eight feet from him. If he had ever been the man or the President that he seemed to be in that speech, I would've followed him anywhere.

Sadly, he was neither.

[frazzled]

5. I agree

And if we try to have a new heart, and truly listen to each other, as President Obama cautioned each of us to do, we wouldn't be afraid to say that former President Bush rose to the occasion with words that were worthy of our attention.

In times like these, we need to take off the blinders of our political preconceptions and respect and listen to each other. All I've seen on this board so far are jokes about Bush's swaying to the Battlehymn of the Republic, and next to nothing about President Obama's complex and heartfelt speech.

Are we interested in nothing but the political trivialities of the moment?

[Separation]

7. Yes

But with a big "but" in there. In my eyes he is a war criminal along with Cheney. Maybe even moreso Cheney.

[Iggo]

6. Fuck that piece of shit war criminal.

:middlefinger:

[Sweetey1014]

8. Bush was either drunk or on

something. Nobody in their right mind dances and laughs like that during the final hymn of honoring FIVE DEAD POLICE OFFICERS for gawd's sakes.

[ghostsinthemachine]

9. Fuck that fucking fuck.

His war allowed the military to train the Dallas shooter.
His Daddy, illegally selling illegal weapons to the Contras in trade for cocaine, crippled the black community for a generation by creating crack cocaine then flooding minority neighborhoods with it.
His Daddy, in a famous speech calling that same crack cocaine the most dangerous thing facing this country, propagandized crack so that penalties were higher than regular cocaine (like the cocaine his dim witted son used at the time) thereby creating the situation we are faced with today.
Fuck that fucking fuck.

[GeorgeGist]

10. He was the same old SMIRK he's always been.

[trumad]

11. Fuck that piece of shit

[LeftRant]

12. I NEVER watch fox but I turned to it for 10 seconds after the speech...

"What THIS president just did was reprehensible!"

*eyeroll*


I didn't see Shrub but, with Trumplethinskin in mind, I'm sure he looked downright presidential :p

[glennward]

13. New hearts are difficult to come by I suppose. nt

[B2G]

14. Impossible for some.

Guess no one takes Obama seriously.

[Rex]

15. Cool story.

Not buying it.
