MOST COMFORTABLE PRESIDENT EVER PRAISES LEAST:

Bush praises Obama during Facebook broadcast (JAMIE STENGLE, 11/30/10, Associated Press)

Bush participated in an hour-long discussion on Facebook Live with the site's founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg and was asked what he thought the current administration was handling well. The former president responded that he liked Obama's policy on Afghanistan.

"I think the idea of putting more troops in was something that I can applaud," Bush said. "I also appreciate some of the education position. As I understand it they do believe strongly that accountability is necessary in order to achieve excellence in the classrooms." [...]

Bush said that "one of the great moments" of his life came this fall when he and his father, former President H.W. Bush, took the mound during the World Series between the Texas Rangers and the San Francisco Giants to throw out the ceremonial first pitch. He added that he feels it's a blessing to be able to spend time with his parents as they are getting older.

"I was given a great gift by George H.W. Bush, and that's unconditional love," he said.

"If you are fortunate enough to be a father, my advice is love your child with all your heart and soul," he said.

A little over halfway through the chat, the screen indicated that about 6,500 people were watching online.

As he wrapped up the discussion, Bush said that he was blessed and content.

"If you see me in an airport, I hope you wave with all five fingers, but if you don't you won't be the first," Bush said. "I'm a comfortable guy."
