If the picture of little 3-year-old Sophia Parlock crying after some Kerry-Edwards supporters tore up her Bush-Cheney poster got to you, well, you weren't the only one. President Bush and even first pup Barney were dismayed too, we hear. It happened at a West Virginia rally last week for Democratic running mate Sen. John Edwards, to which Phil Parlock brought his daughter. After seeing the picture of the tearful Sophia on her dad's shoulders, aides said the president was sending her a little note Friday along with a signed campaign poster and an autographed photo of the prez and his dog. "Dear Sophia," Bush penned, "Thank you for supporting my campaign. I understand someone tore up your sign. So I am sending you a new sign and a signed picture. Please give my best to your family. Sincerely, George W. Bush." And on the picture, he inked: "To Sophia, Best wishes from me and Barney." Phil Parlock tells us it really wasn't necessary. "He already said 'Thank you' when he hugged her" at a previous Bush rally they attended, he says. "She bragged for days."


(Isn't that nice to say for a change?)
Geez, I'm truly welling up.
All I can think of is how my 4 year old would have reacted.
John Kerry: "It was set up by a Karl Rove operative... ;-)"
Pshaw. We need to have this get out. The funniest thing is, my Aunts say that Bush doesnt; care about the little people. They're slimy libs (sorry for being redundant).
A REAL man!
I wish more of America could see the class and honor demonstrated by our President.
That's class.
in you face kerry!
OUTSTANDING!
Bare bottom spanking?

I have family like this too. In this case, who was it that attacked a 3 year on her fathers shoulders, Peter Pan? When that goons name and address comes out, someone should enlist him in the Army. Perhaps a few thousand maganzine subscriptions so that he has LOTS of paper to tear up.
Thanks, Mom! My seven year old would have belted that guy if he tore up his sign. And I would have let him.
Talk about character of our President--
