Freepers mourn the loss of pResident bush on the occasion of his final speech
as their beloved CiC (before they get back to bashing him for immigration or not pardoning Scooter)

To: kristinn
From out of the ahes of despair in the wake of the worst terror attack on this nations soil, this man has held the light of liberty for all the world to see and on from his lips Let Freedom Reign.

President Bush has always made the tough decisions, common sense and erring on the side of Protecting American Citizens from our enemies. He is Teddy Roosevelts “Man in the Arena”.

Let us pray that his predecessor understands the wisdom in the choices of this President and that he too makes his tough decisions while errring on the side of protecting American Citzens instead of relying on political expediency and possibly erring on the side of those that would do her harm.

But he was there when it mattered on
that bright sunny morning, September 11th, 2001.
We here in Sarasota were so excited that he was here,
and then to have the breath knocked out of us was something I'll never forget.

When he said: "they will hear from all of us soon"
will always live in my memory.

Love you as a brother "W"

Everything he did he did out of love for the country and the people of the nation (even though of course many of us disagree with some of those things). Contrast that to the previous occupant there who did many things out of the idea of covering his backside.
I pray for this nation as Obama becomes president. Pray that he would look to God for guidance and direction and discernment. Honestly, any man who has to live in the same house his mother in law lives in needs our prayers. LOL!

And that was when he bothered to keep it covered!

God Bless, President Bush.

When it came to job #1, the protection of the homeland, you’ve have fullfilled your duty. Other issues that you and I may have not seen eye-to-eye on were secondary because there is nothing to argue about if job #1 isn’t done correctly.

God Bless!

I have a feeling this speech will be an emotional one and will watch on line.

Call a call earlier this p.m. I’m now the proud holder of a ticket to the ex-President Bush reception to be held in Midland, TX on Tuesday afternoon. It’s a 90-mile drive, but I want to attend. I was there when he left Midland for Washington that cold day in January 2001. I disagree with some of his decisions, more than a few actually, but he kept us safe after that terrible day in September.

President Bush has far more confidence in the Amerikan people than I do. I hope I am wrong, but I doubt it.

I join one and all with the sentiment of how much I am going to miss President and Mrs. Bush. They have real class and have demonstrated it, much to the arrgh of some of us from time to time, throughout these last 8 years, 8 years of non stop bashing. I agree with the poster who said President Bush, while he did things some of us were not pleased with, did the things out of love for the country without concerns for himself. He was willing to take all the attacks, whatever that might be, in his effort to keep this country safe from further attacks. This goal he met with great success and not without plenty of objective behaviour on the part of others in Govt who also take the oath to support and defend the constitution.
I wish him and his “Love” as he refers to Larua, a safe journey home to Texas and wish I could be among those present to give him the warmest of welcome home cheers.
I am already homesick for this President and will be so very sad to see him leave. He takes the nation's security with him..

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh you lucky duck! I am on the Central Coast of Kalifornia..would LOVE to be there too..so give him a big shout out from those who love him from this neck of the woods.
When President Bush was Candidate Bush running for his first term I went to a rally in Fresno. They had vets on the stage and I was I think the only female vet..retired Marine. I had a book for a friend ( who is a Democrat) who loved McC..his book Faith of My Fathers. I took his book for him to see if maybe I could get the autograph..the Secret Service was so nice about that and I got it..and shook hands with him and was up close to the President and shook hands...it was awesome..And Miss Laura has the bluest eyes..oh my..she wore a teal colored dress that night..it was such a highlight. I get excited just thinking about that great event..I have my Bush yard posters and pompoms too..
He is just a down right good man, a man of such faith and love for this country and willing to sacrifice himself for this nation. Someone else’s name is not worthy to be in this same article to be compared with this fine man..so we won't say it.
God go with you, Mr President.

7. I think it comes from their unhealthy fetish for Sean Hannity
And Hannity's ridiculous misinterpretation of a Martina McBride song, which is actually about a woman leaving an abusive husband, ironically enough. Freepers probably never listened to the lyrics. They probably didn't listen to the lyrics of the Dixie Chicks' "Goodbye Earl" either, or they would have been hated by "typical country music fans" long before they said they were ashamed the Chimp was from Texas.

15. These people think the Earth is literally 6,000 years old, and that Jesus rode a dinosaur.
They want nothing more than to roll back the world to some mythical 1950s universe where no one fucked for pleasure... really, they'd like to roll things back to the 1350s, when "Biblical Law" held sway.

So, for all I know, they really believe time works in reverse--- and Obama IS Bush's "predecessor". :crazy:

Yeah, that bright freaking sunny rainbow filled day when sunbeams warmed our dew-kissed cheeks. A day that we all remember with such joy.

It's completely lost on them that he totally "phoned it in" every day before that. And also on that day as well. And most of them afterwards, (see: Katrina).

Slapping them in the face repeatedly with hardbound copies of "My Pet Goat" for 9 minutes would be too good for them, and frankly, would be an insult to goats everywhere.

Their tears are sweet sustenance to me.

God Bless President Bush.


Only if your god is Satan, Troglodytes.

Additionally, the spell-checker doesn't recognize the word "afterwards". Someone may want to look into that, time permitting.

25. Very interesting - and this part is particularly chilling...
"I knew we were in trouble when, as a boy, you used to gather up frogs in a bag, and run over them in a car and laugh hysterically. I knew we were in trouble when the White House chef quit, as you kept belittling him. I knew we were in trouble when your staff was too afraid to tell you about Katrina, and instead had to create a video."

The Bush presidency, in their eyes, began on September 12. They conveniently forget the months of warnings and memos ignored prior to the attack. They also forget their fearless leader neglected to get the person responsible for the attack and mired us in a war with an uninvolved country instead.
