Hmmm, wondering out loud if the man behid the twins is the Military aide that carries the "football" - the nuclear codes? I thought under this Pres., the Military aide is usually wearing his uniform.

I was struck by how, when the President got off the helicopter, he waited so patiently for Laura's mom and his parents to get off before he started walking away. He respects others and this is just another way it shows.

I keep hearing about Kerry and his "Misery Index" and how they had one years ago--anyone know anything about it? (I'm taking my news in very small pieces so as not to burst an aneurysm!)

Just a few fashion comments (I can't help it!)

Barbara Sr. looks nice in her outfit--I haven't seen her in slacks too much. Or at all lately, for that matter.

George Sr. looks good--and has on the requisite red tie.

Barbara and Jenna look really cute! Maybe not too happy to be on camera, but it's nice to see them with their family. AND in attractive clothes, not the sleazy ones so many girls/women their age usually wear. I hope they'll campaign for their dad this year!

It was nice Condi spent the weekend with them; I don't think she has much for family. Cute outfit on her, too!

Lots of great pictures tonight, as always. :) Everyone looks marvelous. I'm happy to see the twins looking so good and the President looking tanned and more rested than he has looked in weeks.

One thing did jump out at me, though. In pictures #5 and 22 in this section, there is a dark, sorta middle eastern looking secret service agent, has a moustash. In Executive Orders, a Tom Clancy novel, published mid 90's there is a renegade middle eastern secret service agent. Like all Clancy novels, it is positively spooky.
