Thank you Pres. Bush, and especially, Thank you to all of our military. It's time to remember the good and let go of the bad...hopefully we can learn from the past. Whether you voted for Bush or not, (I didn't) let's move forward. I didn't agree 100% about any war...but we cant just sit idly by and watch while another country is torturing their own people either like Pres. Clinton did. Dont blame everything in the whole world on any one man...every one of us our human...but the Pres. of US has a great more deal of responsiblity and power than us, but even he has limitation and things beyond his control.

No matter how people feel about President Bush, they can't deny that he loves and respects our military men and women. Well some probably can but I'm not one of them! Godspeed Mr. President and Thank You for all the good things that you've done for this country!! Thanks CJ for this!

And they sure know how to do that precision drill stuff!! Watching the President, I am guessing he had pretty much chewed the inside of his cheek raw, knowing thats what he does to try and keep himself from crying.

As for what you're saying about how Iraq was under Saddam Hussein's leadership, there's no need to waste any time with such ignorance.

That's all I'm saying. Try to exercise some self control and separate the two when appropriate. Then the respect the military where appropriate WITHOUT bringing your Bush hate crap to the table.

But that does not mean, nor should you conclude based thereon, that I fail to respect our military. Such is simply not the case, and I suspect that deep down you appreciate or at least acknowledge that fact. CJ:

Instead, you show your LACK of respect by simply opening your remarks with "Farewell, pres. bush!" You know and we all know that the implication, if not outright statement, was - that you're glad to see Bush go. It's things like this that cause people to doubt your "respect" for anything. If you can't see past your own hate-filled eyes toward President Bush and see a video of a ceremony the military spend a lot of time and effort putting together, you'll never have our respect. This goes for other posts having NOTHING to do with Bush too. That is why Steve is no longer here. Well, that and the face I just don't like him. For some reason, you amuse me in your "admiration" for this President.

That would be a ridiculous and unfounded conclusion on your part. Indeed, I have as much respect for our country, our military and our political process as anyone else on this site - I just see matters from a perspective far different, but no less justified, than your own. But that is what our country is all about, correct? MissBirdlegs:

Thank you for posting it, CJ. I'd read of the ceremony and read the speeches, but they don't compare to the video. Our Military is so outstanding and I'm grateful for the honor and respect they showed to Pres. and Mrs. Bush. I don't have enough adverbs - although I might could think of a few for the disrespect shown by some of your commenters. I'm sorry for you folks who have no respect for much of anything.
