Marines Welcome George W. Bush, But Are Silent When Obama Enters If you need proof that Obama has lost the respect of our men and women in uniform, all you need to do is watch this video.

Say what you want about Bush, he has made it very clear that loved America and our troops. What do you think? Was Bush a way better leader than Obama will ever be?
