And it is a “monster” that according to him, he just can not slay. To me that is the #1 Reason Obama has to go. He does not Lead! He only looks back and blames.

Obama’s SPECIAL friend…….Bush always did the bad things.

the unveiling ceremony to show GW’s and Laura’s portraits with Bush family members and ex-staff members, was the most gracious and classy White House event since January 2009 when George and Laura moved out.

I appreciated the artist’s inclusion at the request of GW for the painting behind him….“A Charge to Keep”…which was the 8-year theme of his administration and the name of his book which I have and appreciate.

This must have been drawn before the event because there was a lot of smiling and joking at the unveiling.

While GHW had some redeeming qualities, like promoting and signing the ADA, having Dan as a V.P. gave him the ability to look ‘sharper" than he was at times. “W”; I find nothing for, and maybe it’s because the specter of Cheney lingers in every image. “W” wasn’t the one with “fangs”, he was a wimp,

If the Rebumblicans were running a leader I might consider you to right; however Mint RoMoney is just a Carpet Bagger out to make another fast buck at someone else’s expense

Ya can’t fix 8 years of Bush screw-ups, ineptness, and arrogance in a little over 3 years. Can you imagine what kind of poop would have hit the fan if Obama had been in office on 9/11? I think Bush got off Scott free… but put on a REAL war hero’s flight jacket and push the "Mission Accomplished” mantra AND ALL IS FORGIVEN. The Mission hadn’t even started yet. Just remember what a perfect world left behind…. Economy was great, auto industry was solid, housing and banking was in good shape, we weren’t at war with anyone… Oh, my mistake in what Universe did that take place?

Obamas actually resemble him somewhat.

A deserved chuckle for Rogers. Two different points of view as is so aptly demonstrated in the above comments.

You may wish to live in the real world in place of the make believe one Dem Libs like you attempt to create…..You are only fooling yourself(s)……..Of course in the unlikely event you did respond to reality, these pages would be boring.
