And Here's To You, Mr. President

I wanted to give a shout out to Holly at Seeking Faithfulness. She wrote a farewell post dedicated to George Bush that is kind and respectful. Since she closed the comments to that post, I decided to give my thoughts here instead. I know that liking President Bush isn't exactly popular opinion, but I don't care.

He was still new to the presidency when America was attacked, and his response ensured that no further attacks have been made. That was no small feat on his part, yet he has not been given the credit he deserves.

I, for one, would like to echo Holly's thoughts. Thank-you, Mr. Bush, for all you have done these past eight years. We owe you our lives.
