The President is and will be on the road for the next six days. Right now he's on West Coast time, which would make the Dose quite late for Easterners, so I'm posting what's out there, with the expectation that there might be more photos tonight.
President Bush is in Los Angeles today, and will travel in California and then Texas to do some fundraising and receive President Fox of Mexico at The Ranch.
Vice President Cheney reiterated to the press his acceptance as running mate with George Bush for this year's election. It seems he has to keep repeating this because the media doesn't like the answer they're hearing.
Enjoy today's Dose of W, and welcome to Sanity Island.
Good idea.
Whoever said he's not flexible?!
THANKS for the DOSE, Gretchen!
Might I make a suggestion? Since the pins are so inexpensive, order a few extras and keep them with you. I'm sure people will comment on them and then you can offer them one. Consider it a small contribution to the cause ..... :-)
I've done that with bumper stickers.
