I cannot say that I am a fan of George W. Bush. He was president for my entire young adult life, and it was kind of a sad thing to see him go for that reason. Regardless of my political affiliation, I do acknowledge that President Bush had some good policies. He did really make efforts on a lot of things. Everyone comments, somewhat negatively, on his response to 9/11 and the war years that have followed, but I do believe that he cared about the people he sent over there. I do believe he cared about people in general. It is hard to be a President, because whatever you do will be wrong to someone. You cannot please everyone and every choice you make will impact people in one way or another. At any rate, he is certainly a talented artist. I wouldn't have thought about him being a painter until I saw an article about this book and his paintings of military members. I was really impressed by his work and his skill level. This was a neat thing to see.
