He’s hated, he’s reviled - he’s the man Obama will blame for everything, including his defeat in 2012. But he’s better that what we’ve got now, and far better than we actually deserved:

***

What if a president, on his own initiative, under no demands from staff or from supporters or opponents, set out to spend an unprecedented amount of money on AIDS in Africa, literally billions of dollars, at a time when the nation could not afford it, citing his faith as a primary motivation and, ultimately, saved more than a million lives?

Wouldn’t the story be front-page news, especially in top, liberal newspapers? Wouldn’t it lead on CNN, MSNBC and the “CBS Evening News”? Might statues be erected to the man in the nation’s more “progressive” cities?

What if the president was George W. Bush?

I pose these uncomfortable questions for two reasons: 1) President Bush did precisely that regarding the African AIDS tragedy; and 2) a study claims that Bush’s remarkable action has indeed saved many precious lives.

And as someone who has closely followed Bush’s humanitarian gesture from the outset, I’m not surprised that the former president continues to not receive the accolades he deserves — including even from conservative supporters — for this generous act.

Bush himself realizes the lack of gratitude and media attention. I personally witnessed it very recently, on June 17, when I was in attendance for one of Bush’s first postpresidential speeches, in Erie, Pa. There, too, he mentioned the AIDS initiative — even adding that one of his daughters is in Africa today, working on the epidemic — and, there again, it received no press coverage whatsoever.

***

In a large sense, we deserve Barack Obama - a mindless drone who is all image and no grit. A nation which spends its time watching trash like “American Idol” deserves no better - only our military and our civil volunteers (those who actually do things, not those who “community organize”) redeem us. President Bush has a mind of his own and tremendous courage - and thus he was well suited both to those who get down and dirty fighting poverty and disease as well as those who don our nation’s uniform and battle for liberty around the world; and such people, especially in the military, showed untold devotion to the man’s ideas. Sacrificing again and again to bring this humane and, dare we say it?, Christian vision to the world.

One wonders how devoted people will be to Obama’s “soft” approach to terrorism and his plans for US government aid for abortion around the world? Not exactly the sort of thing one chargers over the top for, huh?

Once this generation is dead - especially this generation of hate-filled leftists - then, and only then, will the full truth about President Bush come out. Certainly, a flawed man. A sinner, as we all are. A man who made mistakes - but a man who always tried to do the right thing and who wasn’t a slave to polls, as Democrats are. I said we’d miss President Bush, and we do - but his legacy is secure, and the world is a better place for him having been President of the United States.

Both Bush and Barry suck. Clinton sucked. They all suck. Reagan was OK, but just OK. Maybe a little less than OK. Everyohe else was way less than OK.
