RP Members George W. Bush may not be the most popular President in our history, but he was definitely a Soldier's President compared to our current POTUS. Do you agree or disagree?

14 years ago, I had a President who was certainly neither the brightest crayon in the box nor the most eloquent. He didn't fill everyone's ears with shit they wanted to hear. He made mistakes, as all leaders do, but he owned up to them. 14 years ago, I had a President who made me proud to take the Oath of Enlistment. 14 years ago, I had a President who shared the sorrow of the nation instead of blaming the nation for the heinous deeds of others. 14 years ago, I had a President who never let the people forget he was one of them, instead of setting himself aside and higher than the people he swore to serve. 14 years ago, I had a President who was proud to be an American and who shared that pride with the people. Today, I have an eloquent but petulant schoolchild pretending to be a leader. On the worst day in American history since Pearl Harbor, I had a President who told the world that America will not bow down. Today, I have a charlatan snake oil salesman who bows to my enemies. But 14 years ago, I had a President.

Say what you like but there is no denying the difference, he still rides with wounded Vets every year. Have to agree 100% with this article. The Thanks Giving story about how he got there is incredible as he told NO one other than wife and flight staff, he flew alone on that trip, into a war zone on a huge target to spend the day serving the troops a meal.

I agree. Bush actually cared about us veterans and I cant say Obama gives two hoots for us. I feel he has hurt veterans every chance he gets. I don't think he feels there is a need for us and would just as soon wish us away.

George W. Bush frequently (and with little fanfare) visited Walter Reed and Bethesda often to see wounded Soldiers and their families. The wars and their costs weighed on him, and many have shared stories of tears shed as he quietly and personally spoke to the men and women recovering from heinous injuries.
He continues to do so, too, and is active in Wounded Warrior organizations.

1SG (Join to see) Your use of Wounded Warrior might be construed as favoring a charity with extremely high overhead and executive salaries.

CSM Charles Hayden - Nope, not so much. The organizations I am aware of that former President Bush spends his time on are ones that promote active living after life-changing injuries. I don't really know if he supports the organization you are alluding to.
