QUOTE OF THE DAY: "I want to thank you [Tunisia's President] for working with the United States in the war on terror. I want to thank you for your understanding of the need for Iraq to be democratic and free."

I thought the President looked tired today. He is under the most ruthless assault by the media. Our Dear Lord, please grant the President strength and encouragement, wisdom and clarity of judgment.

I am so glad that he has Laura!

Thanks for the Dose, Gretchen. Haven't watched news (other than local) in many days, can't stand a minute of it.

Did watch long enough to see President Bush talking to the troops in Louisiana, good to cheer up with!

Be back later.

Thanks, Gretchen. Early dose = great.

I'm on a mission from God (or maybe the other guy)

My good friend who is a yellow dog democrat (which I try to understand because she has been active in the party for 50 years in Texas -- and it's her life) was very nasty today. She sent me one of the slimiest columns from the NYTimes about Pres.Bush's National Guard service.

All of the the accusations in it have been well refuted many times, but they don't care.

On it she also wrote something snide about how embarrassing this must be to George HW who was a WWII war hero.

My mission, should I care to accept it (and I do) is to find

1) a good article refuting all those charges and

2) a nasty article about Kerry.

I plan to send them to her with a note saying, "I know you like Kerry, so I would never send you an article like this and I am wondering why you thought it would be a good idea to send me the smear on our President.

Hi, I just wanted to check in for a few minutes. I had a very bad afternoon. Leslie and I had to go to the funeral home to pick up Janice's death certificates. Boy, I did not want to do that. Have been putting it off for a few days now. I had to take Les to the dr and we went from there to the funeral home. I also got some more bad news. A writer which I have enjoyed for many years passed away and he was only 65. Some of you may have read his books too--William W. Johnstone. His niece and I had been emailing for a few years now and this is a great shock to his many readers. I will really miss his writing.
I have done ok with hubby out of town. I am not going to choir practice tonight. It hurts too much!
