You mean you don't miss a president that,

tried to leave a press conference through locked doors,

looked like he was trying to strangle the German Chancellor,

partied during a hurricane,

stumbled around like he was drunk while trying to dance with an African dance group,

sat and looked like a deer in the headlights when told about 9/11,

joked about not finding WMDs in Iraq,

The guy that should have named one of his dogs Clue so that he would have one?

You don't miss that???

Instead we end up with an articulate guy that treats people with respect, even the ones that, in my opinion, he shouldn't.

He thinks things through instead of reacting with a knee jerk response or remark to a situation or emergency.

No...I don't miss it either.

BartCop called him 'Bush the Lesser'. It was probably one of the least derogatory things he called him.

I don't think that anyone else that ran for president could have pulled the country's fat out of the fire the way that President Obama did given the tremendous obstacles that were put, and will continue to be put, in his path before his term is up. I think that the rethugs would have been almost as obstinate if any other Dem had been elected but his race really sent them over the edge.

It's been really something to see how things in the country have turned around.

Thanks for the article freshwest and everyone's pics were great too.
