    HEW beat me to this so I'll try not to duplicate too much.

    No, obviously no sitting president ever previously gave his life for his country on the battlefield. That would be sort of impossible, don't you think? Many of your responses of late have been of this nature. I know for a fact your education level is considerably higher than is reflected in this statement.

    Carter, Ford, and Bush I all served. Bush was shot out of the sky and had to hit the silk. Others at least attempted to pay for their wars, and not hide the cost by not including "supplemental war bills" in the budget, and passing it along to YOU and ME, and our kids and grandkids. The costs of ALL wars are passed on "to YOU and ME and our kids and grandkids."

    Never before has a tax cut been given in a time of war. That is just one little example of "sacrifice".

    Now, I attempted to answer your question, please try to answer mine. What "sacrifice" was Bush referring to? Did his kids serve? nor did about 95% of the kids in this country (especially female) Many presidents and senators have had (fixed it for ya) kids in harm's way. Biden and Webb come to mind. about the only two

    I know what's coming, but before you attack and belittle the service records of those men's kids, please try to answer the question. I think its legit? And here's a VERY legit answer. You obviously have no clue what's coming as you have allowed your anal opening to overload your mouth. I challenge you to find in my nearly four years here so much as a hint of disrespect for ANYONE'S service to this country....not yours...not anyone's, not GWs (which you just went out of your way to do), not Bidens' son and certainly not the (now) 14 tours my family have served since the beginning of hostilities. If your desire is to insult me.....find another way to do it.

    Certainly not on this forum. This is far and away the most radical Right forum I've found on the internet.

    stands to reason. it always amazes me how the extreme left wing likes to feature themselves as moderates. the left doesn't even want any news that may have acceptance of conservative positions. They just want thier news sanitized of any position they disagree with.

    I got some news for you, you are not a moderate.

    Talk about a useless pile of turd droppings... You got a job yet David??? Just curious. Or are you still trying to pedal pictures of the US President getting crapped on by an Eagle?

    Lets see, GWB is ranked 36 out of 42. The party of Lincoln has indeed come a long way. And they have groupies like you to thank for it.

    I will agree that I think that George W. Bush was one of the worst Presidents in the history of our country. However, it is clear that he felt and feels the depth of the sacrifices that have been made by our young men and women acting on his orders. He has written to the families and met with many of the families. To accuse him of not caring makes no more sense than to accuse Obama (who has done the same things) of not caring. The evidence is that both understand and accept the responsibility that comes with their positions and that they have both sought to make clear to our soldiers and their families -- alive, wounded and dead -- how much we honor their service. I hope that we never again do to our soldiers the disservice that we did to those who fought on our behalf in Vietnam.

    George Bush, or his handlers, were the experts of staged photo ops.

    Actually, the evidence suggests that he avoided publicity in almost all of his efforts to reach out to the families of fallen soldiers. You are often more likely to hear about some of the things done from the families than from the White House. One family commented on receiving a letter from the President. When they opened it there was a handwritten PS at the bottom from Laura Bush. Similarly, Obama's letters have had an impact since he appears to be signing them with his first name, "Barack" with personal observations abut each soldier. As much as I dislike the policies that Bush put into place, the man has consistently shown himself to be deeply caring about the people of the country and especially about the soldiers who have given so much. Attacking him on such an issue evidences the same blind hatred that is so often directed at the current President, and it is wrong.

    Don't worry. You simply suffer a case of right eye dominance. With a lot of mental exercise, you can probably learn to see better.
