Sister of slain soldier lashes out at Trump over fallen troops

    Delilia O'Malley lashed out at Donald Trump after he claimed past presidents hadn't called the families of fallen troops
    She revealed President George W. Bush listed to her scream and then hugged her after her brother was killed in Iraq
    Her anger was echoed by thousands of other Gold Star families who say they were insulted by Trump's false comments
    A number of ex-staffers who worked with past presidents have also since publicly slammed Trump for blatantly lying
    The record is plain that presidents reached out to families of the dead and to the wounded, often with their presence as well as by letter and phone

President George W. Bush was one of the classiest Presidents this nation has ever had.


If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

Yep.  His 2006 budget deficit of $160 billion and falling was too much for America to bear.  Democrats were given the reigns and promptly reversed the trend.  Within 3 years, the deficit would be ten times that.

I get sick of so-called Republicans bashing GW Bush.  He was a damned good President.  A hell of a lot better than his dad.
