The President's hardworking National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice spoke about and took questions on the Global War on Terror's war of ideas, addressing the efforts the Bush Administration has taken to lead the world toward values and understanding that will bring a just and lasting peace, at the United States Institute of Peace in Washington D.C. today. Dr. Rice counseled Americans to be 'less critical of every twist and turn' in Iraq.
Retiring Senator Zell Miller, D-GA, will deliver the keynote address at the GOP Convention.
Dr. Condoleeza Rice talks with Sean Hannity (radio link) on military transformation.
The First Lady had a significant interview with Bill Sammon of The Washington Times, stating she believes life begins at conception and that she supports her husband's view on abortion. Asked if she was pro-life, she answered yes and stated abortion should be rare. "Mrs. Bush laughed incredulously when asked whether the press was fair and impartial in its coverage of a conservative such as President Bush. Her press secretary, Gordon Johndroe, laughed even more heartily." The twins will not be speaking at the GOP convention, she said. The short interview is worth the read. She described her husband as "very loving and compassionate and really sweet."
The interview excerpted further: "The first lady was asked whether she would be devastated if her husband lost. 'Yes, of course,' she said. 'Would we still have a life? Sure. Would we have a good life? Sure.' [Sammon asks:] Would Americans survive a Kerry presidency? 'They'll do a lot better,' she said, smiling ruefully, 'with a Bush re-election.'"
President Bush will be vacationing for a week at his ranch so we're not likely to be seeing a lot of the usual photos.
Enjoy your daily Dose of Team W @ Sanity Island!
Thank you!!
Gotta love her! :o)
Agian, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
Did you see Dick Morris on Fox they were talking about Kerry and the Vietnam issue I thought Dick Morris put the issues very well but I am not very good at precising it maybe someone else who saw it can do better
Yep, you sure do :o)
Good night God Bless and Happy Anniversary
She's not online now because of a storm in her area.
Is it true that a vet is not supposed to salute unless he's in uniform?
I believe so,but ken can answer that better.
When you're retired, out of uniform..you're a civilian..the military salute is for serving active duty..and we wom't go into the different services regs about saluting indoors, or under "cover", or not..if you ever go into a VFW post, many of the guys will toss a pseudo salute..it's like a handshake..and that's fine..it's cameraderie..but Kerry, the pissant, was descending the airplane step, like it was AF one...and he RETURNED the salute..to me, it was an isnult to the President as commander in chief..
I feel Kerry is insulting them all.
Just read a lot of what phancy posted tonight, about God, GWB, kerry, and Divine Inspiration!
This is one of the reasons why I love her! She's my little Quaker buddy!
that's why her deep faith in God. I love it! :o)
Nothing new..he's been insulting the military for 35 years..
THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN.
Thank you for your service!
I believe Americans will see through kerry, and it will show when GWB wins the election!
I'll "see" you all tomorrow!
Good night and God bless!
Ahhhh, thank you, ken. That's what I thought. And that makes it all the more insulting to the military when Kerry salutes.
Yes, I enjoy talking about things like that on occasion with phancy! And she does have a deep faith in God! She's an inspiration herself! Though she won't hear it if you were to say so :o)
Good night and God bless you, Pippin!
"See" you later...
