A Great Example of a Transfer of Power

 

In Jean Edward Smith's biography of George W. Bush, he wrote about what President Bush thought of President-elect Obama during the transition period.

On page 650, it states:

“As part of the presidential transition, Barack Obama asked Bush if it would be possible for him to meet all the ex-presidents. Bush was happy to oblige, and organized a White House luncheon in the Oval Office on January 7. Bush and Obama were joined by Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and George H. W. Bush. The luncheon lasted over two hours, each former president ordered his lunch à la carte from the White House mess, and the tone was convivial and friendly. “All the gentlemen here understand both the pressures and possibilities of this office,” said Obama before the meeting. “For me to have the opportunity to get advice, good counsel and fellowship with these individuals is extraordinary, and I just want to thank the President for hosting us.”

Bush was equally effusive. “We want you to succeed,” he replied. “Whether we're Democrat or Republican we care deeply about this country. And to the extent we can we look forward to sharing out experiences with you. All of us who have served in this office understand that the office transcends the individual.”

January 6, 2021 was history in the making!

 On January 6, 2021 History was Made!  And we still do not know a lot!  In the coming days, weeks, months, and years we will find out more!  But here is what WE Know!

Trump held a rally encouraging his supporters to march to Capital to contest this false election result.

They Did, stormed the Capital and got on the floor of Congress, and went through open offices!

It was all filmed and played out on TV!  I like millions sat for hours and watched the coverage!  I was sickened and saddened!  Most importantly disappointed in the security of America!

I am trying to STILL Process what happened, but I bet I will be teaching this for the rest of my career!

Here are some pictures from that day:!
