A day in the life of President Bush (photos): 9/23/04

Aw, thanks. You're very sweet!

Amazing, indeed.

Wow, RWP your fingers were flying tonight! Lots of pictures on this dose. Thanks for posting it.

It sure is good to see you back every once in a while. The original, the one and only.

ANd we thank you for everyone of them.......even if it takes ten minutes to down load......
We are so blessed with "W" as our CIC.

DID you see the articles today exposing the attempts at vote fraud before the election? I know Gary In got caught this summer. Today I think it was in PA...Anyone else have more details.....People are being watched and they should get VERY nervous.....10-15 year jail terms are not nice....Someone is doing their jobs and deserves out thanks.

Well said, hoosierpearl.

Thanks for the dose, Rintense.

I heard Rush talking about the voter fraud, and the organizations that have been caught are liberal organizations. But it's Republicans that are trying to suppress the dead vote!

I never pictured President Allawi to look like this!! I think in order for him to look so happy and carefree he must have great faith in the Iraq's quest for freedom. Why he looks so much like my Grandpa is another story.

Prays for him, his people and their success.

Heard that too.....Suppress the dead vote...LOL...Isn't that MO specialty?

Michigan got caught today registering it's dead. It's getting to the point where a law may need to be passed that states "The dead shall not vote."

What's been amazing is that absolutely none of the articles on voter fraud identify which party is getting caught. I guess it's just a given.

Whoa MAMA!! Got a bit of the Cary Grant look going here.

You know what amazes me? No matter what W wears, either a suit and tie, rolled up shirt sleeves or a dirty T shirt and blue jeans, this guy looks great. There is something in his face and eyes that appeals to most women. He just looks genuinely happy with his life and the kind of person he is. I guess that comes from standing by your beliefs and being able to look yourself in the mirror each morning.

Psalm 3

¹ LORD, how they have increased who trouble me!
        Many are they who rise up against me.
       ²Many are they who say of me,
        "There is no help for him in God." Selah

       ³But You, O LORD, are a shield for me,
        My glory and the One who lifts up my head.
       ⁴I cried to the LORD with my voice,
        And He heard me from His holy hill. Selah

       ⁵I lay down and slept;
        I awoke, for the LORD sustained me.
       ⁶I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
        Who have set themselves against me all around.

       ⁷Arise, O LORD;
        Save me, O my God!
        For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;
        You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
       ⁸Salvation belongs to the LORD.
        Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah

WooHoo....Our President was BUSSSYYYYY today!!! Thanks RWP.

THAT was my FAVORITE one, TOO.....handsome man!!! Hey, Wphile....did you ever give us a run down on the Convention...and "after" report?

No, I haven't done it yet. I had major computer problems and actually had to exchange my computer. Thanks to MtnGrl who told me that Costco accepts returns within 6 months of purchase. And since that, I haven't loaded my pictures yet - been scrambling with the campaign, work-work stuff, farm stuff, kid stuff, etc. I have some time tomorrow so I'll try to do it then.

Below is another great pic of our troops waving to President Bush after he left their plane

Members of the U.S. Army and National Guard wave to U.S. President George W. Bush (news - web sites) from the steps of their chartered plane bound for Iraq (news - web sites) after Bush boarded the plane to greet them in Bangor, Maine, September 23, 2004. Bush, who was in Bangor for a campaign stop, boarded the plane on the tarmac at Bangor International Airport and personally greeted the soldiers in a show of support, before he flew back to Washington aboard Air Force One.

Your name is a welcome sight. Don't see you here a lot recently. This is a reunion night I guess.

The blessing of an election year is all the wonderful pictures we're getting.

Thanks for your pictures today, RWP!

I was telling ohioWfan, I just cried as IPM Allawi spoke.

I was so proud to be a citizen of a country that would do all this for the liberty, freedom, and safety of another.

I cried too....and then got really angry when I heard sKerry response.....He is just plain ignorant.

That is one of several Psalms that sounds like it's about our President and his enemies!
