It's both reasonable and a duty
for American citizens
to keep their presidents in check
when it comes
to how they conduct
their affairs
(well really
"our" affairs
as he is
one of us)
in far-off lands.
And technically
former President George W. Bush
is an American citizen
so there should be nothing
ironic or strange
about him being concerned
with Obama causing "chaos"
in the Middle East
and giving him advice.
Nope
he's just doing his duty.
(It probably
just seems weird
because we haven't
heard from him
in a while.)
