I know Bush was crazy with the spending, but that’s not really an excuse for Obama to airdrop gasoline on a wildfire.

The conservative blogosphere really should start a fundraiser to buy everyone at Daily Kos helmets to keep them from hurting themselves. That’s compassionate conservatism right there.

In Africa, newborn sons are named after George W. Bush. Yet his legacy to this country is the election of a black man — whose father was a true son of Africa.

Bush saved over a million lives in Africa from HIV related illnesses. If that kind of compassion is "a contradiction in terms," or troubling, perhaps the bar is set too high.

Bush did many things right. He is a decent man, who like all of us, makes bad decisions. Unfortunately a few decisions have really really damaged this country, but we'll come back from it, and soon enough, the Republicans will produce a politician who convinces the majority that he/she has the best ideas. It's all cyclical.

Thanks for the post.
