All five living past and present U.S. presidents gathered in Dallas for
the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum Thursday,
an event that saw the men share a rare bond that transcends
partisan differences."There was a time in my life when I wasn't likely
to be found at a library, much less found one," Bush quipped,
before thanking his predecessors and successor for the "kind words" and
the "examples you set."Bush thanked his mother Barbara Bush for teaching
him to live life to the fullest, and his father, the 41st
president, for "teaching me how to be a president ... and how
to be a man."- President Obama on President Bush"Forty-one, it is awesome
that you are here today," he said, drawing a smile from his
88-year-old father, who has battled health problems in recent months.Earlier,
President Obama noted that the exclusive group of current and former presidents
is often viewed as a club, but he said it is "more
of a support group.""No matter how much you think you're ready to

of across-the-board tax cuts, the expansion of Medicare to include prescription
drug coverage, the No Child Left Behind education reforms and a massive
push to fight AIDS in Africa. A financial collapse also struck at
the end of Bush's tenure, though some trace its origins to the
enactment of deregulatory housing policies in the Clinton era.A Washington
Post/ABC News poll found majorities still disapproving of Bushs handling
of Iraq and the economy, but history offers some hope for Bush
that his standing may rise further.The fact is it's very difficult to
get an accurate assessment of an American presidency, certainly while it's
going on, but even four or five years after it's ended, Knott
said. It took at least 20 years before Truman began to creep
up on those lists of presidential greatness.Fox News Poll: Bush's Favorable
