George W. Bush and Barack Obama need to have a joint press conference [View all]

To talk about the authoritarian regime that has taken over and they need to do it very quickly we are running out of time and things are even worse than many who consider themselves tuned in realize. .

It should be a no-brainer this should be obvious that they both have to do it and they have to do it right now, I do not believe George W. Bush wants what’s happening to this country to continue to happen, I just think he’s a coward and not willing to do anything about it, stop being a coward.
