    Former President George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, made a surprise visit to U.S. troops this afternoon.

    They showed up at the USO in the Dallas-Fort Worth airport. There they mingled with the returning soldiers, thanked them, chatted and posed for photos as proof of the unexpected encounter for folks back home.

    The USO just posted an assortment of the photos on its Facebook page, which quickly drew a growing list of appreciative comments.

    "What an AWESOME moment," Robert Rowe wrote. "If anyone can't see the President and First Lady's love for our nations troops, they must be dead or blind. May God Bless them ALL !" Richard Cruz wrote: "The look on that kid's face says it all...."


    And Shirley Lovely Fry added: "A President and First Lady who love their country and their country's military."

    Will show up in Dover Delaware show his respects to the dead ones whose lives he wasted with his bull , bogus war-for-oil?

    And visit some VA hospitals to cheer up the living basket cases?

    dubya "loves the troops"? what a ing myth. You don't love the troops by sending them to die while trying to grab oil in foreign countries.

    did you notice he didn't put his arm around the black soldier?

    ...and somebody whispered "mr. president, you need to shake her hand".

    it's right there on the video!

    Unless you are part of the MIC or US oilcos, the blood spilt in Iraq by dubya is of absolutely not benefit to you or the USA.

    Those troops look to be beaming in these Pictures. An actual president that they respect and that respects them back.

    Like him as President or not George W. Bush always showed appreciation for the men & women who sacrifice for us daily. Such a glaring difference between Laura & Mic e....Notice please liberals-why I know you do not like President Bush-please notice this visit like ALL his visits to troops, even when President was done without press, without fanfare & most of all without even a teleprompter

    Do you know how carry on a civil conversation?

    Or do you want this to be a 5th grade conversation?

    To answer you though, are you honestly calling the showing of support to our troops an enormous waste of money?

    do you think a 5th grader would know if the press were there?
