George W. Bush

Tonight I found these opinion articles and they stirred some thoughts/feelings. Following the link are my thoughts:

George W. Bush is a good man and I am ashamed for turning on a president that never turned on me. The national and world events over the last 8 years have been nearly unprecedented in their magnitude. As a nation we have suffered great losses. President Bush largely handled these losses with a good dose of humanity, decency and dependability.

In recent weeks I have found myself joining with the throngs of Bush-haters in despsiting the man: his partisan politics, his too-loyal cabinet, his ignorance and inaction. Today I feel ashamed for turning my back on a man that loves his country dearly and has sacrificed selflessly on her behalf. History will eventually remember George W. Bush for what he is: A brave and unfaltering leader. A God-fearing and resolute man. A true friend and a compassionate servant of the people. I believe I will miss him dearly.
