25. If either of the retired Bush Presidents

have respect for the office they once held, they would set these bastards straight. You
can hate the man but you respect the office. If Democratic members of Congress were
treating a republicon president like this, Carter, Clinton and especially Obama would be
personally offended.

That is one of the differences between Democrats and Republicons. While I may disagree
with a number of our Congress people, they have never insulted the President on a personal
level. Can you imagine if this had happened to Bush in 2004? It's inconceivable.
