Originally Posted By Labuda Nope, definitely not. Having a president who has vidided this country instead of uniting it and who's lying to us left and right is a very UN-Disney thing. They need to put the HoP back to the way it was before they had the current President speak. As for Abe Lincoln, I hope DIsney never gets rid of it. ANd I hope I'll get to see it after the 50th is over since I haven'tyet had the chance.

From The Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln to The Hall Of Presidents to The American Adventure. I'm assuming you just overlooked that simple fact in your opinionated statement or perhaps simply believe all of those attractions should be gutted. Various past Presidents have said a word or two during the Christmas Parade in the past. Whoever it is, he (or in the future perhaps she) has every right to wish our nation the best of holidays through this public broadcast. No matter how unpopular this is to say, I think its incredibly childish to be so upset over something so harmless.

You and I can disagree with everything he has done, but he is still the leader of this great country and there is nobody higher at this time. Love him or hate him, having the President, whomever it is, be part of a national holiday presentation is a very Disney thing, imo.

Originally Posted By Beaumandy Bush frees 50 million people from the Taliban and Saddam, keeps the country safe since 9/11, has the ecomomy going great, has unemployment at histoic lows, never waivers on fighting terrorism.... yet some on here don't think he deserves to be heard at WDW? This explains why these same people lose election after election after election.

Originally Posted By DLFAN79 ""His appearance has nothing to do with this President's political agenda."" Lets see, a US <MILITARY> Processional, and THEN Bush will speak?? Um, 2+2=4

Besides... 9/11 occured during this administration, and not anyone elses.. And for the record... I never cared for Papa Bush, Clinton or any other political figures appearing during WDW's 90 min ad on Xmas day on ABC. They did not belong there talking about peace and such and Baby Bush is the last qualified person to talk about peace on Earth on this most cherished holiday. >>Bush frees 50 million people from the Taliban and Saddam<< That's why he is the Prez of Iraq, not the USA. >>has the ecomomy going great<< ...and my paycheck just shrunk 23% which means about 12,000 less a year. >>This explains why these same people lose election after election after election.<< It only explains there are more fanatical idiots in this country, period.

Ditto. <<>>Bush frees 50 million people from the Taliban and Saddam<< That's why he is the Prez of Iraq, not the USA.>> He was elected President of the United States. Get over it. To say that he is Prez of Iraq is simply offensive and insulting. If you don't like it Vote for someone else next time. Comments like this simply show hatred and childishness. Grow up.
