• Bush at Ft. Hood

START EMAIL MESSAGE:

The doctor had his TV on in his office when the news of the military base shootings came on. The husband of one of his employees was stationed there.  He called her into his office and as he told her what had happened, she got a text message from her husband saying, “I am okay.”  Her cell phone rang right after she read the message. It was an ER nurse, “I’m the one who just sent you a text, not your husband. I thought it would be comforting but I was mistaken in doing so. I am sorry to tell you this, but your husband has been shot 4 times and he is in surgery.”


The soldier’s wife left Southern Clinic in Dothan and drove all night to Ft. Hood. When she arrived, she found out her husband was out of surgery and would be OK. She rushed to his room and found that he already had visitors there to comfort him. He was just waking up and found his wife and the visitors by his side. The nurse took this photo.


What is even better is the fact George W. Bush heard about Fort Hood, got in his car without any escort, apparently they did not have time to react, and drove to Fort Hood.  He was stopped at the gate and the guard could not believe who he had just stopped.  Bush only asked for directions to the hospital then drove on.  The gate guard called that “The president is on Fort Hood and driving to the hospital.”  The base went bananas looking for Obama.  When they found it was Bush they immediately offered escort and Bush simply told them to shut up and let him visit the wounded and the dependents of the dead.
He stayed at Fort Hood for over six hours and was finally asked to leave by a message from the White House.  Obama flew in days later and held a “photo” session in a gym and did not even go to the hospital.  All this I picked up from two soldiers here who happened to be at Fort Hood when it happened.

This Bush/Obama/Ft. Hood story is something that should be sent to every voter in the US

END EMAIL MESSAGE:

If anyone can prove this wrong please do so.

    Sure, send it to the voters. Hopefully they’ll remember that Bush is responsible for one of the greatest military blunders (Iraq) in the history of the US that caused the death of 4,000 american boys and killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis.

    This email contains some fact, and a bunch of fiction. The fiction being that Bush spent 6 hours there, while Fox News said it was 1-2 hours (the length of time doesn’t matter, the fact is, he went, and it was a great gesture), and that Obama went only for a photo op and didn’t meet with the family.

    I suspect in his retirement he will do some great deeds for the country like many of our past presidents.

  • kona Says:

    Good of him to go, but I didn’t know he was running again.

  • fritzthebootlegger Says:

    Bobby, Bush lives 30 miles from Ft. Hood, it was probably on his way to Costco.

  • evilfury Says:

    It was awfully presumptuous of the nurse to send that text.

  • fritzthebootlegger Says:

    I bet Tiger Woods’ nurse sent Elin the same exact text message on Thanksgiving weekend.

  • tcbntx Says:

    obama doesn’t have a clue as to what it takes to be a President

  • fritzthebootlegger Says:

    Sure he does Wes. He just doesn’t want to do it the way YOU want him to do it.
