Has Anyone Noticed This on Social media?

While Obama shuts vets out of memorials, another president spent time with vets like this

In some cases the users would add a picture of GW Bush visiting vets and a Burned vet whom was injured in the Iraqi war.


No veteran fights for socialism
Does it even matter whose in charge anymore?

I had noticed this trend several times on social media sites. Are they portraying that they want Jeb Bush to Run in 2016?
If GW Bush actually did really care about the vets he wouldn't have started the war in Iraq in the first place.

Bush is totally out of politics, won't even comment on them. He has nothing to gain personally at this point. I'm inclined to believe his caring is genuine.

That might take third on my list of hypotheses, after "trying to work off a massive pile of guilt" and "desperately needs the company since no one else will have anything to do with him".

Bush genuine? Most people in Maine loathe the Bushes (and for good reason). Yeah he supported the troops alright... when it suited him. During the first six months of the invasion into Iraq he was at Daddy's summer home fishing. He also was the one that enacted a total media blackout of the dead soldiers coming home.

Yeah he is real genuine. :rolleyes:

Sure guilt is a possibility too. But if that is the reason, I still get the feeling that W really does care about them. Could be wrong, no big deal.

I dunno, Sr and Barbara seem very well liked, even the liberal papers print positive articles about them. I'd suspect that W doesn't fare as well, but W's approval ratings are currently higher than Obama's and Obama won the state twice.

If I lost a loved one in a war, I sure wouldn't want to see their casket on the TV. Maybe that was W's motive, maybe it was more sinister, I can't say.
