QUOTE OF THE DAY: President Bush: From his speech "A few Americans have accepted the hardest duties in this cause - in the quiet work of intelligence and diplomacy ... the idealistic work of helping raise up free governments ... the dangerous and necessary work of fighting our enemies. Some have shown their devotion to our country in deaths that honored their whole lives - and we will always honor their names and their sacrifice.

All Americans have witnessed this idealism, and some for the first time. I ask our youngest citizens to believe the evidence of your eyes. You have seen duty and allegiance in the determined faces of our soldiers. You have seen that life is fragile, and evil is real, and courage triumphs. Make the choice to serve in a cause larger than your wants, larger than yourself - and in your days you will add not just to the wealth of our country, but to its character. "

Dang it! I was distracted by the Dennis Hopper thread.

The article is blaming "kooky Christians" for dissing Hopper. But the rest of the guest list doesn't add up. I mean, Matthew Modine--he's a flaming lib, isn't he? Strange.

That young Barbara has become quite a lovely woman.

We're so blessed to have him back for 4 more years...
Today I went to Arlington Cemetery and wrote some cards of thanks to put on the graves of our soldiers killed in Iraq who didn't have anything on their graves from their families. We can't let them be forgotten.
