- During a funeral service for Senator John McCain, former President George W. Bush spoke with reverence for his fellow Republican colleague. McCain died at age 81 on Aug. 25.
George W. Bush always said that history and people would recall him in a favorable light. This has happened. Imagine that.
That's because people are idiots, always have, always will be.
Why? Lol between the spying on the American people and the war? That was made worse by The Obama administration?
It only took the biggest rich dumbfuck on this Earth to make it happen.
W saw Donald coming lol
George W Bush was the cancerous tumor who destroyed this land, he can say whatever he wants about himself but the facts say otherwise
Honestly it’s the America I love when I can see three Presidents, two parties, one country sitting together side by side supporting each other. What happened America.
Donald Trump happened.
On this eve of the 2020 election I can only hope that many voters will hear John McCain’s voice over their shoulder :”We are better than this!”
🙌👏👍🖖🤘✌️❤️🇺🇲❤️🌎❤️🌍❤️🌏
A wonderful eulogy from a President I never voted for, but who reminds us that more unites us than divides us. and that decency & love of our country is bipartisan. R.I.P. Senator McCain.
_"The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again, because she was always great "*_ -Meghan McCain
Thanks for your comments that I'm seeing from you, Nyx.
bill bixby LOL You just gave me a far scarier thought: Melania Trump on the View.😂I'd love see her blab on over ripping off Michelle Obama's words at the RNC, her strange "I really don't care" jacket, why she picks decency over social media when her husband...well, you know, his tweets, if she's being held hostage in the White House and really wants a divorce, and what it's like having her own bedroom. Hmmm....now that I think about it she might end up being lovable, after all. LOL
bill bixby Quick research reveals that you're spot on. You get a thumbs up from me. It's baffling because it appears that she defends Trump or his supporters. I'm baffled. I'm totally turned off by this feeling that conservatives are being attacked in the media. They're always playing the role of victim. Apparently, they forget about the existence of Fox News.
bill bixby TROLL trump lover right here!
@Morgan Field You're most welcome, and Thank You! The division in our country truly pains me & hurts everyone imho. I'm fortunate to have relatives & friends on both sides of the aisle.
@bill bixby Err, sorry, i never watch the view. Only seen a couple of vids of YT. But hate's a consuming emotion. I live just fine without it lol I agree on some things with Meghan McCain, disagree on others i.e. same as everyone.
This is Bush at his best beautiful eulogy.
Beautiful tributes from Bush and Obama.
Regardless of how you feel about McCain’s or Bush’s policies in office, both were/are two very classy politicians who always conduct themselves with dignity and grace. Thanks to President Bush for paying such a great tribute to someone as dedicated as Senator McCain!
I'm a Democrat and love President Bush and Laura. Bush is looking good. Beautiful words for a fallen Hero. Mccain was indeed a uniter in life and in death. Rest in peace Mccain. God bless your family.
Janet Omido your insight inspires all of us. Ty Janet.
I don’t agree with his politics, but he is a good honourable man who respected the office to which he was appointed and the ideals on which it was founded. John McCain believed in those same ideals, so it makes me sad that he left this world without seeing the presidency returned to having some semblance of equilibrium with those values.
I totally agree with you
Janet Omido completely agree with you.
Janet Omido you like how he invaded and started a war in Iraq and Afghanistan. How about how half a million men ,women and children were murdered over lies. Bush is a war criminal !!! There were no WMDZ !!! And the Mossad and Netanyahu lied !!!
Loved his speech. So beautiful and well spoken. RIP Senator McCain.
Some of my favorite people. John McCain, George Bush, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden. Rest in Peach John McCain. Such a great man...a great light to the world is laid to rest.
But now george Bush is also dead
@@Thunder-wv5gl he is still alive his father is the one who died.
@@jamesbraun9842 Ok I am sorry... my bad. Tnks for informing
Joe Biden now President-elect. Trump fired!
John McCain served his country until his last day alive. Our country lost one of the most beloved , honest and humble man who ever served his country both from the military and as a U.S. Senator. A man of incredible moral values and impeccable political stature. An honorable yet humble man who knew nothing but to serve his beloved country. May he rest in peace.
I wasn't a huge fan of Dubya, but really grew to like him since. He did himself and McCain proud. I miss having real presidents.
you mean traitors don't you
You need to do some research... Bushes satanic worshipping criminals
We still have Real presidents. The current one is Donald Trump.
You miss war mongering neocons?
please spare me the Bush white washing, he and his administration did so much damage it is never going to be the "great" place it was before 2000
Thank you , President Bush for an eloquent and honest speech in memory of your friend John McCain. May he rest in the Peace of God through eternity.
I didnt know he died... so tragic.. i was waiting for a speech from him. RIP Senator John Mccain
And former President George H. W. Bush . ✊
I am super left, but this address made me feel American again! We are not a divided country. I hope! Ex presidents can be honored! While truly supporting who was voted for.
I am not a Republican, and back in the day was I fan of Bush jr. But I must say , compared to what's in the White house now. I would pop open a beer and invite him over for a football party...lol He did a nice speech
He comes from a family of warrior's a warrior knows honor and beyond anything, a warrior wants peace at all cost.
apparently you need to listen to all the eulogies not just one.
Even though I don’t agree with bush politics I like him as a person.
@MikeJames6 it’s not him insulting republicans, it’s him insulting bad presidents. He just has common sense
I still remember in the mid 2000s when everyone hated Bush but now he turned out to be very likable.
We hate USA intervention in the Middle East. Same as we hate USA intervention, unjust in LA, during the '80s (sometimes supporting dictators). It is the never-ending agenda of hegemonic powers. But one must be objective and separate the person from the governmental period: I never heard Bush lack respect in a press conference, he is an intelligent man and could have listened to health authorities to act as they consider the best way in a Pandemic, he never insulted women. Probably Bush learned a lot during his presidential period and this made him wiser.
I never get tired of listening to this eulogy. I can watch this over and over and get teary-eyed all the time.
Great eulogy President Bush. I miss the time when America had real good presidents who are truly patriotic in every sense of the word. God bless you always.
Trump makes me long for Bush Days. Did I just write that?
Lol...I understand! Smh
Word.
Mwangi Wathufu I'm in the same boat. I understand!
Mwangi Wathufu do you respect the american flag?
Wow, I thought I was the only one who felt like that !!
*God Bless John McCain*
>A dignity that does not stop at borders and cannot be erased by dictators.
I wonder if the tangerine man is going to let that whoosh right over him
@100% Real Woman 4 The Throw the Bum Out Party! he'll just color it in wrong 🤣
A very good speech Mr President.
A speech made by a Republican leader with great character, honor, and integrity before Donald Trump came along and completely destroyed anything and everything the party once stood for. George W said it very clearly on the 20th anniversary of 9 11 this year..."Today's politics is about anger, resentment, and fear. This is not the America I know." Donald Trump took what already existed, and capitalized on it.
Never thought I’d say this, but at this point I’d give a kidney for President Bush.
please do!
Why not give 2
Kevin Rose Well, I do have three, sooo...
Just don't offer your heart to Cheney, he might take it : )
My heart belongs to someone else.
Respect for a great man
One Hero to other Hero..
John Mc Cain ,the United Man R.I.P.
Hasn’t even been a year yet and it already feels like 100 years ago
"The only thing necessary for the Triumph of Evil is for good men to do nothing." "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country." We've never needed to heed those words as much as we do now. CONGRESS, are you listening?!
*♾ Thank You Senator John McCain -- Rest In Peace & Power Sir...❣️❤️🇺🇲 & Thank You President Bush For This Beautiful Eulogy...❣️❤️🇺🇲 ♾*
My CONDOLENCES For JOHN MC CAIN Family And Friends!! He Is A BIG Part OF OUR HISTORY!! R.I.P. JOHN MC CAIN!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SACRIFICES AND CONTRIBUTIONS!! THANKS For Your SERVICE!! 💝🇺🇸
Nice. Good job. I feel like Bush was being sincere with his words.
Michael Luna lil W is a good guy, his administration and his father were another story.
2:59 - Love the look on President Obama’s face.
He was a good guy I met him at the gas station
Being in solitary confinement for two years will force one to transcend the normal conditioned thinking of the mind and therefore higher ideals will be accessed and a strength and peace is attained.
Every important person is here ....
Words from real statesmen, Bush and Obama left big shoes to fill in the white house.
And a stench!
megaso56 that’s what trump will leave
You can pick somebody at random, and it is almost certain that person will do a better job than Bush did. He was hopeless.
Wow, what a mixture of feelings for me...I don't like George W. at all and I'm no big fan of McCain but today everyone was classy and it has me pining for the days before Trump. RIP McCain and thank you for speaking at his funeral, George W. From what I saw the speech was good and he (and his wife) look good.
Every body like bushy family because they are honest with Americans kind gentle genuine very nice very helpful people god bless bush families
I love George W. Bush
Jesse I can see how you got there. I respect you’re opinion wholeheartedly. I loved the guy because he wasn’t cruel to Hispanics. It’s better than most white people do for us. He wasn’t perfect but I’m grateful to him.
It's just great, when a nation's leaders put politics aside and speak from the heart about one another. We see the humanity that unites us all and the strengths and weaknesses that make heroes of even the most questionable of leaders.
Speaking from the heart. Well done Mr. President.
RIP Joihn McCain- you did it the right way and you are s hero
Trump makes president Bush look like a saint.
Bravo President Bush...
Not even a year later and yet it feels like a 100 years ago
President Bush has lost his mother and father this year
I am not a republican. But I remember seeing John McCain returned to us after his long and grueling ordeal in Vietnam. I remember when he was first elected to the senate. I have ALWAYS respected John McCain even when I didn’t agree with him. The sitting president, trump, refusing to respectfully acknowledging his passing is the most disgusting action any president could do, he does not respect the office or his countries hero’s. John McCains entire adult life was a testament to his love,honor, and respect of his country and for fellow human beings.
Another Good Man, I'm Canadian I think America forgot what a President looks and sounds like! John McCain was a very clever Man and a Hero having these two Presidents from each party speak, showing what Great looks like!
Tell my brother to somebody that I couldn't let her go someday someday
outstanding display of why our country is great. I can't imagine what is rolling around in Trump's mind but I assure you, integrity, honor, compassion,duty and patriotism are not part of his making America great again.
speak for yourself
spare me
megaso56 I can,I'm a veteran that wasn't born with a silver spoon and money is not my God.
I'm a vet too.
megaso56 then you should know about everything that trump is not.
Obama and Bush both spoke sincerely how president are ment to speak regardless of what side there on left or right unlike the current president who couldn't even say a nice word about a war hero
He and Obama showed us how to be presidential.
Good speech
I like this man
Rip John
RIP J,MC 🇦🇱
People hated bush but he’s miles ahead of the cheeto. I think bush is a good human just made some wrong decisions
7:21 - Cheney nodding off. LOL. Probably can’t handle all that talk about “America being better than this.”
I could not picture any of today’s politicians being capable of being this dignified
Caribbean Girl
Bush: "And one day many lives will be needlessly lost because we fail to act today." That today is our reality. May God help us! I wonder what Bush is thinking of today.
Not the greatest speaker, but he is self aware and knows this. He can handle being joked about without being nasty. He has has character of decency and kindness. He can write a thematic speech. He is educated and has class, something Trump is really not. We at least need to get back to Presudents with moral decency.
Then a text message changed my life. I cannot come to work 5 kids are missing. They took vacation and they couldnt communicate this to me
I tried to make a better home renovating and buying new curtains, new throw blankets, new sheets, new rugs, new clothes, new shoes
Trump looked at McCain like an enemy and he was glad to see him go... That's why he ignored questions about the senators passing
Too many disillusioned folks to address here. Incredible to see so many in one place. Why America is doomed.
What happened to him??
trump the crybaby
Andre Herring Art Andre the libtard...
@@Ur2ez4me81 you must be the die hard loyalist of Trump's support cause the latest polls give him a 60% disapproval rating making Trump the worst president in the history of the United States of America
Ur2ez4me81 lololololololololol...did you forget to take your "im not brainwashed" meds 😕
Yeah he made him a better criminal.
I wonder how John would feel about the World since the Trump presidency. I can only assume that he'd be wholly disappointed.
Isaiah 5:18-24 King James Version (KJV)
18 Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:
19 That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
22 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
23 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
24 Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the Lord of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Good god NBC, couldn't you at least have let us hear some of the post-speech applause and facial shots of the former Presidents and audience? What's the rush? Couldn't spare another 10 seconds in an 8 minute video?
Must I
Be able to
Agree with him.
Here we are in Trumpland, longing for the days when REAL presidents (regardless of the political party) led us all -- because they understood they were the President of ALL of the American people (regardless of political party). My God, I miss those days. Thank you, President Bush and President Obama for speaking and for reminding us all of what a leader of this country should look and sound like.
I wonder what America would have been like if he had defeated George Bush back in 2000 Republican primary and become the nominee.
He was a terrible president but he gave a very noble speech.
Best President considering 0bama and trump
Honestly him and Obama weren't so different. Definely better than Trump, but thats a low bar.
Terrible is a word meant for our current President.
Terrible is a matter of opinion I’m sure every president is terrible in someone’s eyes but honestly what you should consider before calling someone terrible is look and weigh your facts before you deliver an opinion. Terrible he was not however your opinion is. Consider the current president when you judge the rest.
Why not both? This man is a war criminal after all.
Now I realize that I voted for the 3 of them!! Bush McCain then Obama
Kansas city texas
There’s a lot of clones in this event
Super Friend!
The other guy always votes for the other guy
What are those little Circles anyways
Negative tilt
Elaine Chow looks bored picking at her nails.
The way he talks about him gives John mccain a captain America vibe he was always fighting for the america that could be not the America that was I think that might be the thing we lost with trump we lost our drive to be better
7:46 - There’s Karzai on John’s right. 🇦🇫
Oh no where was the orange man😊
She is behind on her light bill and wifi bill and is trying to stay open for the summer. She might have to close and my checks have been cut off.i have go e 2 weeks without a check
politician john mccain, im us out side japan person but 2000 i must remain myself by politician john mccain and former pregedent geoge w bush told me offer
All these are nice words and they tell of great ideals that I share. BUT Americans still have to ask themselves why the ideals did NOTHING to convince people not to vote for TRUMP... Something went wrong that ideals and words can't fix anymore, exactly like 1933 in Germany. I a big BANG may be necessary to make people realize the value of ideals again (like always in history).
RIP Senator John McCain. Now why in heck did you support Trump? That went against every decent thing you stood for.
Hope you can say the same, one day. 😁
