Dste Ace Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 I really don't have anything good to say about Democrats or Republicans, but I've always liked Bush 41. As a 20 year old kid he flew torpedo bombers off the deck of the USS San Jacinto in WW2. In the late 80's - early 90's there was an attempt to Swiftboat an incident where his plane was shot down and his crew members were killed. Basically, he was accused of letting his crew die while he saved himself. Several other pilots who witnessed the incident came to his defense, saying that, if anything, he stayed with the plane far too long trying to give his crew members a chance to escape the burning plane. Seconds after he jumped, the plane exploded in a fireball. The incident is recounted in the book 'Flyboys' by James Bradley, the same guy who wrote 'Flags of our Fathers'. He's been scorned for being born with a silver spoon in his mouth but he never ducked his duty or responsibilities. In the Gulf War he held together an unlikely coalition of nations consisting of Israel, Saudi Arabia, etc. He convinced Israel against retaliating against Scud missle attacks from Iraq, knowing that retaliation against an Arab nation would cause the coalition to fall apart. After Iraq was defeated he resisted pressure from the chickenhawks to keep going into Baghdad, foreseeing what an abortion that would turn out to be. His Secret Service details from his White House years have nothing but good things to say about him and his wife. Polititians today would do well to take a page from his book. P.S. Please don't take any of the above as any kind of endorsement for W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Dog Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 The Bush families are all about helping American's and will go to any length to support all of us. If you follow what they are involved in you would clearly see this. They do not flaunt most of their good deeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
