Let’s face it, America misses George W. Bush. The left misses him because they much enjoyed putting every ounce of their failure and frustration on his shoulders. Conservatives miss the power and the sense that their President looked out for them. Those in the middle look at Mr. Obama’s policies and lack of emotion and realize that GWB wasn’t quite the demon he was portrayed to be by the left. For all of GWB’s failures, and there were many, he always came across as a person that liked people. Barack Obama has a distinct “don’t touch me” vibe. It is impossible to imagine a photo of President Obama like the above image of George W. Bush. The photo is from the 2004 campaign when President Bush stopped to hug a teen who lost her mom on 9/11. Mr. Bush asked the young lady how she was faring as he hugged her. She answered “I’m OK,” to which the President said “I can see you have a father who loves you very much. ” The young lady’s Dad replied, “I do, Mr. President, but I miss her mother every day.” The U.S. press didn’t like to focus on moments like this of George W. Bush’s humility, but there were many during his eight year tenure. The press was singularly focused on ousting Bush from Day One. From 2004 on, they were working toward the election of Barack Obama. Browse the web. You won’t be able to find any photos of President Obama genuinely hugging anyone besides other world leaders. They are his equals if you will. Or at least members of his court. Obama doesn’t do emotions. The only time the President seems emotional is when he is basking in his own reflected glory. Myriad campaign rallies come to mind. I’d smile, too, if 20,000 people were chanting “Ro-man-o, Ro-man-o.” People don’t trust emotionless beings. In the end, Mr. Obama’s lack of empathy or inability to connect with ordinary people may be what dooms his Presidency to one term. For this President that may be enough. Being President requires getting your hands a bit dirty. Any man in the street knows that may require some emotion and human contact. That is a task the President seems unwilling or incapable of doing. If that is the case, the reign of Barack Obama will shift from transforming to sad. Last night the President attempted to attach the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico with his, as yet, failed energy policy (David Stein analyzes this effort in full here). America isn’t buying it, Mr. Obama’s lack of a genuine huggable moment may have more to do with this failure than the President’s handlers would like to admit.

That picture was taken here in Ohio, outside the Golden Lamb restaurant in Lebanon Ohio. Bush had his faults, and made some mistakes...but you never doubted there was somebody in charge, and he never Blamed CLINTON for anything. Owe-bama and company can't get through a day without blaming Bush, or somebody else. And thats the biggest difference the public is noticing these days.
Just 10 days prior to the explosion, the Obama administration’s regulators gave the oil rig a pass, and last year the Obama administration granted BP a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) exemption for its drilling operation.
I don't see him hugging them, but he has tried to go down on a lot of other male leaders. Maybe he thinks he is in the back seat of a car with Larry Sinclair.
Yeah, Dick Cheney and Halliburton
Look at Boofer putting lipsrick on a pig? SOME mistakes?!? Your boy is firmly tied with James Buchanan as the worst POTUS ever. His fiscal mismanagement alone qualifies him. He fell asleep on duty. He invaded a nation that a) he did not receive a declaration of war on b) was incapable of threatening anyone {Saddam tortures his enemies!!!! Boy did that come back and bite you in the ass] and c) wholly ignored the festering wound in Afghanistan that now cannot be solved without nuking two nations and starting all over. SOME mistakes...tool...

That'll be the day...
The myth of Cheney and Haliburton will be laughed at by scholars 100 years from now, when the insanity the Left and the mainstream media produces is also studied, mocked and ridiculed by the same. According to this Myth, the Vice President was some sort of all powerful being, obviously not a mere mortal, obviously sent by the devil himself. That there is no 'there, there' doesn't matter to normally rational people in the current era. Its sooooo easy to say 'Cheney and Haliburton!' as if there is some real 'meaning' beyond a odd derangement, self inflicted. My honest opinon.

Are you still pushing this bullshit?
The truth is that compared to the chi town racist thugocracy now squatting in the Whitehouse led by the messiah "king" obammy, America misses F ing Jimma CAW Turd. Oh yeah, "It's ALL de ebil BOOOSH'S fault!" (tm pending.), eh asslickers? UP is DOWN! Night is Day! Useful fools/TOOLS UNITE! All HAIL the messiah "king" obammy! What a MAN. The line to lick the messiah "king" obammy's a$$hole starts right behind vile beyond mere words TRASH. Slurp slurp slurp eat it ALL up TOOLS!
Quoted by PDS insane assholes every where.
My honest opinon. I don't have a problem with an honest opinion. However, it's my honest opinion that Cheney was the power behind the throne. In my forgiving moods, I think GW knew that he was intellectually limited, but was pressed into a position for which he had no real aptitude. (Frankly I think the Bush family has as much drama in it as Shakespeare's King Lear [among other Shakespeare plays]). So he relied on the King's Counsel (Cheney), who had his own agenda and parochial interests (Halliburton). Whether the scholars laugh at you or me in 100 years is a wager I'd like to personally witness--with oodles of botox on hand.
Odd, I've had pretty much the same impression. I imagined that Bush was offered the opportunity to be president and promised that he wouldn't have to actually run anything, just give some speeches and make appearances.
What Bush offers now is proof that liberals are 100% frauds. What they criticized Bush for , they now embrace in Odinga.

What drunken idiot wrote this crap?
You would take the photoshopped pic seriously. But EVERYONE knows Barry and Larry smoked crack and c*** together.
Right. Degrees from Harvard and Yale...and you say he's 'intellectually limited'. Sorry, thats the personification of Bush Derangement Syndrome. Tell the forum, where are your degree's from? (rhetorical)
Just 10 days prior to the explosion, the Obama administration’s regulators gave the oil rig a pass, and last year the Obama administration granted BP a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) exemption for its drilling operation.
If Cheney were in charge, Scooter Libby would have been granted a full pardon. That alone puts to rest you bullshit assertions.
