Bush recalls ‘awesome’ presidency: ‘I was famous and powerful’ By David Edwards Wednesday, July 18, 2012 9:54 EDT Print

George W. Bush speaks to the Hoover Institute Topics: george w bush ♦ Hoover Institute ♦ presidency

In a recent interview, George W. Bush fondly recalled his eight-year presidency as “awesome,” but said he wasn’t eager to get back into public life.

“I really don’t want to be in the public eye anymore,” the former president told the Hoover Institute’s Peter Robinson in an interview posted to YouTube on Tuesday.

“Look, eight years was awesome,” Bush explained. “You know, I was famous and I was powerful, but I have no desire for fame and power anymore.”

“I don’t want to undermine our president — whoever is president,” he added. “And a former president can do that. And I think it’s bad for the presidency itself.”

“I have found that life after the presidency is awesome.”

Bush left office in 2009 with a 22 percent approval rate, making him one of history’s least-liked presidents, according to CBS News. In all, 73 percent said they did not approve of the way he ran the country for eight years.

he can't face the public because he knows he will be met by what is referred to as an angry mob; pitch forks, torches, and the like.
