Which post, or how many do I post to, that says MY GOD!!!

I see and read that former President Bush died. (notice I used capital P )

For everyone that wants to blame every R prez in the past forever years,,, let me be an old guy that says you're wrong.
I am a life long D, signed up and defended this country. And I hate Trump. But I have also respected the office of President before this ass took it, to never post things like Im seeing tonight.
So I say, humbly, I served this country, the OFFICE still should mean something no matter how much DT tries to make it not mean a damn thing.

But why is everyone so happy that a former Prez dies? IMHO every person before DT deserves the respect of running for, campaigning for, and winning the office.

Only DT posters, and other "only D or nothing sites" have brought on this crap for previous office holders who aren't named Donald Trump,,,

My old guy advice,, Love Country , or love your keyboard,,

unbecoming. I will admit that I will probably act that revolting when rump dies....but see he really is not a good person at all through and through - he truly deserves that response.

I really shake my head when people portray these folks (Barbara Bush, McCain and now GHW) as very one dimensional. They did this bad, or Barbara Bush said this comment once so that means they are a horrid person to their core. It's silly and ridiculous.

We can mourn and wish well to his loved ones despite our political differences or disagreements. His passing gives me reflection as we are all aging and losing people in our personal lives and those in the public arena whether they be in Government, the arts, sports or media. I'm sure a week ago, he was thinking just how quickly 94 years have passed.
