  1. George Bush has turned out to be a MUCH better person than I gave him credit for. He has stepped up to the plate several times after no longer being president. Good job!

    1. @paul w I dont what age you are but you sound very childess. I have probably been around the block a few more times than you,,I voted for Nixion my first time voting..wasnt so smart of a pick either, but what Im getting out I have lived through several Presidents, seen it all and they all are crooked or dishonest to a point just have to pick the lesser of the evils.

    2. I don’t think you would call someone a good person, if they had killed and burnt your family
      I don’t know if you know, but it was because of this man that almost the entire country known as Iraq has been destroyed
      business, bodies, hospitals and schools burnt into ashes , innocent people were tortured and made naked and bit by K-9 dogs, the only way Bush can be forgiven is if justice is given to those martyrs in iraq and if only he repents to God, otherwise if he dies and goes without repentance and faith he will burn in hell for eternity. #JusticeforIraqis

  2. actually a beautiful eloquent eulogy, filled with Scripture references of Love and focused on healing, acknowledging the importance of courage and humility John Lewis displayed in his perseverance fighting for the rights of all people to be equal

    1. Hello there. How are you? Its nice to meet you and I hope to chat with you soon. Cheers. Nice comment y

    1. Trump fan here Bush is a buffoon can’t erase the human tradgedy he created in the middle east using outright lies.

  3. Wow a Republican Pres who wasn’t afraid to show up. Poor Donald could learn about class from President Bush.

    1. The only reason Trump is in is because of Bush. It’s been a long two decades of massive social decline

    2. @peppe44 did you listen to the whole eulogy or just clips on Fox? It makes a difference. He talked about how John grew up. He talked about how John preached to chickens. He quoted scripture. He talked about how John was beaten by state troopers. He spoke of John’s belief in equality. Did you hear any of that or just a few clips and then you let Fox tell you what to believe?

  4. If anyone doubts this man’s heart, please read up on PEPFAR. There is a reason he had the most diverse cabinet to that point in our history. There is also a reason he is so loved in Africa. Quietly left that legacy in the world

  5. 1 John 2:18
    [18]Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
