It is exceptional. I wish I could write like that; it's a gift.

That picture of President Bush with Vice President Cheney in the background so perfectly captures the essence of the president - his innate kindness and his humility at his place in time - it is now on my homepage. Thank you again.

FOUR WIVES

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one-day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times.

The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her! One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered, "I now have four wives with me, but when I die I'll be all alone." Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I have loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No way!", replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another word.

Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart. The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"No!", replied the 3rd wife. "Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to remarry!" His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, "I have always turned to you for help and you ve always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!", replied the 2nd wife. "At the very most, I can only send you to your grave."

Her answer came like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: "I'll leave with you and follow you no matter where you go."

The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was so skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect.

Greatly grieved, the King said, "I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!"

In truth, we all have 4 wives in our lives: Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul, often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go. Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us that will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

When the world pushes you to your knees.....You're in the perfect position to pray.

Sorry I typed Juan instead of John. My business partner is named Juan and I'm currently working on a web project with him virtually while freeping.

Great Job again to the Thursday Crew of FR's Finest...

With Democrat credibility sinking as top '04 contenders slug it out to see who can be weakest on defense, the President clearly is in the driver's seat, offering a combination of experience and know-how no Democrat can hope to match.

All those quagmire-stuck dwarfs are the epitome of those backseat drivers jokes.
Me, I'll take experience, integrity and leadership as my 'driver.'

And that's the reason my gut tells me this wasn't Bush's last State of the Union Address.

;-)

I like the way you put that. ;-) backatcha

Great work john,

you always cut through the leftist spin and present the facts of the matter.

What I witnessed last night was a full frontal assault on those in that Chamber who continually distort the facts and do all they can to smear a man who has gone out of his way not to respond to their baseless attacks on his integrity.

President Bush has not wavered one bit from each and every one of his promises he made during his campaign for the Presidency. His only mistake was counting on the SCOTUS to strike down the portions of CFR he disagreed with. I can live with that, mainly because these concerns can be addressed in future legislation. People on this forum who claim they voted for him and feel they have been betrayed by this President, must not have paid any attention to his campaign

Great Job John!

As I always say, your 2 cents are priceless :-)

Your friend,

Mike

Our President inherited an economy that was declining. The decline started well before Bill Clinton left office. That by itself will increase the budget deficit. The tax cut would have turned things around reasonably well but along came 911. The devastation of that to our economy is immeasurable as people stopped buying and flying. And that, by itself pushed us further into a budget deficit. Then we have to now defend ourselves in ways we never imagined. It cost a ton of unbudgeted money. That further pushed us into budget deficit.

Now what part of that did our President cause?

IMO he didn't cause any of it.
