Whatever faults he had, George W. Bush was always the gentleman and a class act. Reviled, demeaned, and hated – Bush (unfortunately in my opinion) never returned the anger or hatred. Unfortunately President Obama still likes to make Bush his favorite scapegoat and whipping boy – however that has not prevented him from turning to Bush to help in the relief efforts for Haiti. Being the patriot and Christian gentleman that he is, of course President Bush responded positively. There was plenty to criticize in the 2nd Bush administration but he never deserved the filth that was heaped upon him by his lesser. George W. Bush was/is/and will ever be – a better man then Barack Obama.

During the Henry Gates Officer Crowley racial controversy there was a telling picture of Crowley assisting a disabled Henry Gates as both walked a few paces behind the ever haughty and imperious Barack Obama. As Obama was strutting before the cameras championing racial equality, the Officer, who had been portrayed as a racist by Gates, relinquished pride and exhibited compassion for his accuser. If what Michelle Obama professes is the truth and “actions speak louder than words,” the picture of Crowley compassionately aiding and guiding Gates down the Rose Garden steps said a mouthful. Officer Crowley’s empathy, as compared to Barack Obama’s self-obsessed concern, was evident with out a word.
Yesterday, America witnessed a similar display of humbleness. George W. Bush, criticized, mocked, humiliated, blamed and dishonored by both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, put the needs of the Haitian people before personal feelings and pride.

For political expediency Obama continues to diminish G.W. Bush in the minds of the American people. In response, the ex-President reciprocated by building up Barack Obama’s wounded reputation before the nation. George W. Bush behaved like Officer Crowley; only this time Bush assisted a political cripple who may talk a good talk, but if you watch closely has trouble walking without a crutch.
