whomever is critical of this particular book wouldn't have spent a dime to place it on their coffee table. the purpose of amazon reviews are for those who have actually purchased and read or viewed the book. this is not a blog.

Many people blame President Bush for "starting a war based on lies", being "incompetent" or "getting elected only because of his Dad." They say President Bush "stole the 2000 election." This book proves those critics wrong. It shows a man who had the intelligence and humility to understand the presidency is much larger than the person. Someone who understood such a powerful position requires the need to make hard decisions that affect our daily way of life and our future. Often times, those decisions come up unexpectedly. A man who worked hard to comfort the frightened and grieving. Someone who helped give strength to rescuers searching for victims in a vast jungle of destruction where thousands of people died in just a few hours. This book illustrates how President Bush had to make the difficult decision to send brave young men and women to fight in an unknown, volatile area. It also shows how President Bush never forgot that his greatest support system is his family.

A LEADER.............. President Bush I love you!!!!!! Keep being strong. I am with you! Do not let the majority think you are not the HERO. We know you are my HERO, so is your wife Barbara. Stolat I Love you both March on......

Love Aunt Suebee

I love the photos and, of course, I love the man too. This is an excellent gift to get someone who loves GWB!! I highly recommend it.

This book is a great addition to other recent books by those from the Bush administration. Great behind the scenes photos from a modern American presidency.

It looks like several reviewers saw this book on the "New This Month" list and decided to give it one star simply because they dislike the man, without looking at the book itself. So, in order to balance things out, I'm giving it five stars without looking at it. Isn't democracy great?

I applaud the great leadership abilities of our President and I am sure many Americans will join me. Among the achievements that are behind him (and I am sure that there is time left during the presidency for many more):
- Has made healthcare affordable for all Americans
- Has created millions of jobs with joblessnes at record lows
- Has won the war on terrorism
- Has brokered lasting peace in the Middle East and Far East
- Has made all countries in Middle East embrace democracy, with
some of them already prosperous democracies in a short span
- Has secured the trust of both the aisles of the Congress to
legislate policies beneficial to all Americans into law
- Has made cheap sources of energy available to Americans
that we can all use into the foreseeable future
- Has made American economy strong at least for the rest of this
century
- Has made budget and trade deficits a thing of the past
- Has made America the leader of the free world after a period
when we were thought as a pushover by terrorists
- Has restored America to play its destined role as the leader of
the free world
I am sure there are many more that can be added to this list. Let us all wish our President continued success.

Even a supporter of Bush will see no purpose for it. Non-supporters will see it for what it is - pure propaganda. Just one of so many books that represent a waste of good trees.

Apparently, there are still many with delusions about the "greatness" of our current president. However, after the drowning of a GREAT US CITY , NEW ORLEANS, millions of former luke-warm Bush & Co. supporters finally recognize this as the most INCOMPETENT, INEPT, AND IGNORANT ADMINISTRAITON in US history! Still, the reactionary ideologues continue to priase this "leader" to the skies. What did the hurricane reveal once and for all? Bush & Co. trashed/gutted FEMA, a fact which no reactionary ideologue can deny if he bothers to read the facts! And the "No one thought the levies would break" mindset makes crystal clear this fact..Or as Rice said "No one thought an airplane would be used to crash into a skyscraper!" The same level of brainpower! And the wonderful "Shock and Awe" War of revenge by Bush and Dad's retreads has been , according to many military experts the #1 Strategic disaster in US history..And even C. Powell has admitted his UN War monologue was a pack of lies! So, we have now 15,000 dead and maimed US soldiers, ten of thousands of incinerated Iraqis, $200,000,000,000 spent down a gutter, Lousiana Guardsman in Iraq, not able to protect their own nation/city/state, not to mention amphibious vehicles stuck in Iraq as well! And a huge recruiting ground for BinLaden types,another fact agreed by all intelligence experts, but denied by the fervid reactionaries! As for all the comments on "Bush-Bashing". These same ugly reactionaries always conveniently forget the huge hate, character assasination campaign of the Clinton years, indeed the nastiest in US History! And this past week the Commander in Chief says "Wow-Brazil is a big place!"after checking a map! The list is endless, but no doubt there is a huge "Buyer's Remorse" within millions of hesitant 2004 Bush voters!

To bad almost all the negative reviews on here are from a certain democratic website that posted orders to come over here and write negative comments, even though they did not read the book.
