Ever since the election in 2001, I have loved this man and have the utmost respect for him as he leads our country. He is a man of conviction and integrity. One day I WILL meet him - mark my words!
As his presidency is coming to a close and our country is about to swear in a historic president, there are many questions about what will be written about George W. Bush. This is what he has to say about that:
Bless him!
Steven Curtis Chapman recently recorded a song written for George W. Bush called "Goodbye Mr. President." You can click here to listen to it. It's a good song and worth your time.
Thank you Mr. President. Thank you!

Awesome-if George Bush knew that you were his biggest fan in the whole world-he would want to have you over for dinner-I'm sure of it! :)s
Girl you are crazy!!! I still think it's "interesting" this love for G.W. i hope Mike doesn't get jealous.

Molly, I love GWB, too! I respect him so much and am thankful for all that he has done for our country.
Maybe it's too early . . . but I couldn't find him singing the new song.
I did find the lyrics:
Good- Bye Mr. President” – Steven Curtis Chapman, 2008
“Good-bye Mr. President,
I guess the time has come for you to,
Pack up all your things and turn the page,
So I was thinking as you left,
I’d try to right a song to tell you,
What so many of us want to say.
-
For all those sleepless nights,
I am sure you must have had,
For all the prayers I’m sure you prayed,
For how you tried to lead us when the way was so unclear,
I am sure it wasn’t always evident, but thank you Mr. President!
-
Good-bye Mr. President,
You will not be forgotten,
All the courage and the hope you helped us find,
I can’t imagine how it felt,
To stand where you were standing,
And to try to make the calls you thought were right.
-
So for those sleepless nights,
I am sure you must have had,
That put those lines around your eyes,
For how you carried the weight,
Even when the lights went out,
I am sure you’ll never know how much it meant,
I thank you Mr. President.
-
So for those days ahead,
When they write about the past,
And everybody has their say,
From all of us who know,
You gave us everything you could,
We hope you will remember this,
Thank you Mr. President!
-
Good-bye Mr. President.”
