While President Bush might have been at odds with President Obama during his presidency, they both looked like they had put all of that behind them during the funeral on Saturday, September 1. Both of them, who was invited to speak at the long time Senator’s memorial; were seated next to each other.

But hey, did you miss President Obama’s look?

If we go by reports, the two have been known to share genuine friendly moments when appearing together. Bush was quoted in an earlier interview answering to a question related to the former US First Lady, “She kind of likes my sense of humor.” He further adds, “Anybody who likes my sense of humor, I immediately like.” Putting the jokes aside, seeing opposing political leaders on the same page and being friendly towards each other is so refreshing. We can see it as a gentle reminder to treat even political opponents with politeness and respect, which thankfully includes passing a piece of candy to satisfy a dry throat.
