Obama Meets With US Presidents
by Big Dog on Jan 7, 2009 at 19:33 Political
President Elect Barack Obama met with the current president and three past presidents today at the White House. Obama and current President Bush met privately and then the five gathered for a photo op and lunch. The Free Republic has the pictures and some humorous comments.
Protocol dictates that the men put differences aside during these kinds of events so there was no bickering, at least publicly, as the men who have served gave pointers to the man who is about to.
George W. Bush was a gracious host:
George W Bush gave him the warmest welcome. “One message that I have and I think we all share is that we want you to succeed,” he said. “We wish you all the very best, and so does the country.” Telegraph UK
While the men were heading off to eat Bill Clinton commented that he loved the rug in the Oval Office.
Since protocol dictates they act as gentlemen one can only imagine that the head voice inside George W Bush was saying; “Well, after your tenure the other rug was too stained to use.”

bush probably wants Obama to succeed because he realizes that the assorted bush disasters Obama has to clean up can only tarnish bush’s so-called ‘legacy’ at this point.
Are you and your protest warrior biker gang thugs going to roll on the inauguration? There will be many liberals there – ‘patriots’ will need you on vaseline patrol at the Vietnam memorial. After a hard days work standing around ‘protecting’ the memorial (since apparently the police can’t protect it) you can mosey on over to the parade route to rest your heft on the barricades. by employing your usual mass-gathering math, you can claim that 4,000,000 people showed up to protest Obama, like you guys do during anti-war protests.
So, who do you like for 2012? (Grand)Mother-of-the-Year Palin? Hollyweird-hero Thompson (again)? Death-fetishist Huckabee? Exorcist Jindal? Or do you prefer a dark horse fraudulent candidate like ‘Joe’ the ‘Plumber’?
We shall see about the legacy though I doubt Bush worries much about it. Obama will be such a disaster that Bush will look good.
I do not plan on being anywhere near DC. First of all, there will be plenty of police, second of all the only vasoline will be what the queers are using to take care of each other and what Obama uses when he bends Americans over.
I would not want to be there. It is a prime target and frankly I don’t want to be around a million moonbats all worshiping the sainted one. Besides, they will all crap their pants if a vehicle backfires and then trample each other to death trying to get out.
No, I will be at work that day. Someone has to pay the taxes that subsidize all those bed wetting liberals who can be there because they have no jobs.
