Classless leftist ....Bush has done more for the continent of Africa than Obama has ever done
A sterling example of the maxim, no good deed goes unpunished.
Former President George W. Bush was booed when he appeared on the video monitor at todays memorial for Nelson Mandela in Johannesburg, South Africa, according to the White House pool report, which cited local press outlets.
Meanwhile, when the images President Obama and Michelle popped up, there was a 30-second deafening roar, the pooler wrote.
How sad. Bush has done an far greater amount for South Africa than Obama. But Obama is much better at crafting his public image and saying the right things.
Bush personally saved the lives of millions of South Africans with his Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR, ensuring AIDS drugs are available to South Africas impoverished masses.
From a Washington Post piece describing how Bushs achievements were haunting Obamas June trip to South Africa:
In South Africa, the success ( of PEPFAR) was extraordinary. AIDS killed roughly 2.3 million in South Africa once one of the worst-affected countries in the world and orphaned about a million children there, according to the United Nations. Today, rates of infection have fallen to 30 percent, and nearly 2 million people are on antiretroviral drugs.
Meanwhile, Obama has cut PEPFAR funding and generally been his customary inattentive self. From the same Post piece:
AIDS advocates on Sunday said that Obama administration budget cuts that have slashed hundreds of millions of dollars from PEPFAR threaten to turn back years of progress in the fight against the AIDS epidemic. Last year, the administration unveiled a budget that reduces AIDS funding globally by roughly $214 million, the first time an American president has reduced the U.S. commitment to fighting the epidemic since it broke out in the 1980s during the Reagan administration.

Anti-American Sentiment Growing in South Africa
by Terry Leonard
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Rising anti-American sentiment fueled by discontent over the U.S.-led war in Iraq is casting a shadow over President Bush's visit to South Africa.
Scores of disgruntled South Africans have protested this week outside the U.S. Embassy in Pretoria and the consulates in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
STOP BUSH!
Anti-war coalition supporters stage a protest outside the U.S. Embassy in Pretoria, South Africa, Wednesday, July 9, 2003 as U S President George W. Bush met with South African President Thabo Mbeki.
Bush is on the second leg of a five-nation visit to Africa "The whole African tour is a diversion away from Iraq," said Shaheed Mahomed, chairman of the Anti-War Coalition in Cape Town. "This do-gooder visit is in response to a new Vietnam syndrome rising, as more and more body bags go to the U.S."
That was while he was President in 2003.
Can you find anything about him being booed at Nelson Mandelas funeral? I can't.
This is what we are talking about here in this thread, not that he was booed in 2003.
Outstanding! W is a truly disgusting person.
Outstanding! W is a truly disgusting person.
Who's policies helped save about 15 million lives in Africa. I guess you can't cure stupid.
So basically this is like every other Repub outrage thread.
It never happened. Nice!

You are wrong about that.
Africa is not one big glob. There are very different countries within Africa.

Here's the thing about Bush a lot of people don't get. There wasn't a racist bone in the guy's body. He seriously didn't care about your color, your religion or your national origin.
I personally think he really wanted to do good. He got in a bad crowd. Had he not invaded Iraq or messed up the economy?
We'd be looking at a very different legacy.
Can anyone find a video of Bush even speaking at the funeral and being booed?
I don't think he even got up and spoke, nor did any of the other 2 Past Presidents.
I did see an article that said President Bush got up and clapped after President Obama's speech.
6:51 a.m.: George W. Bush gives Obama a standing ovation, and the crowd cheers as he leaves the stage.
The Nelson Mandela Memorial Service
The ones who spoke were Leaders that are in power right now.
All I have found is that Jacob Zuma was the one who was booed.

Yeah, without that, the legacy would be:
- allowing the worst terrorist attack in history on U.S. soil
- letting bin Laden escape
- Katrina
- outing a covert CIA agent
- firing 9 U.S. prosecutors for political reasons
- torture
- no-bid contracts
- creating another bloated, expensive Federal agency
MUCH better.
Wow, this is just sad.Bush is a war criminal who should be arrested for invading Iraq, for Gitmo and the torture of prisoners. There was no evidence of WMD and he KNEW that before he invaded, but he wanted access and control of Iraqi oil.
Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld personally made billions of dollars off the Iraq war and subcontracting out services to the troops. The whole war and rebuilding of Iraq was one massive government ripoff, with American troops paying with their lives.
Then, for good measure, he trashed the world's economy. And the low information types here are praising him. Idiots.
