A day in the life of President Bush (1/22/05), many photos
WhiteHouse.gov; various news sources ^ | 1/22/05

Posted on 01/22/2005 11:32:53 AM PST by Wolfstar

The President, First Lady and their parents relaxed at the White House today. Former President GHW Bush visited the press corps on duty in the WH press briefing room.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: This week, Washington has been marked by pomp and circumstance. In a free nation, these ceremonies are more than pageantry. They underscore that public office is a public trust. America's elected leaders derive their authority from the consent of the American people, whom we serve. This is a high privilege, and that privilege carries a serious responsibility: to confront problems now, instead of passing them on to future generations.

As long as I hold this office, I promise that I will serve all Americans and will work to promote the unity of our great nation. And working together, we will secure the blessings of liberty, not only for ourselves, but for generations of Americans to come.

President George W. Bush, Presidential Radio Address, Jan. 22, 2005.

So is Jeb's daughter in treatment somewhere, or still having problems, or overseas, or does anyone know?

Could you believe they actually had a show on about the protestors? I kept flipping back, hoping they'd cover the balls, but for over an hour they were showing the protestors. And just as I was beginning to appreciate CSPAN.

Does anyone know where the picture is of "W" giving Lady Laura a little smooch on the cheek as they dance?

The "Hook 'em" horns of the University of Texas Longhorns apparently got some Europeans all a-twitter because they thought the gesture meant "devil horns."

I have a different gesture that I'd share with certain Europeans. I wonder what they'd think about that one? :^P

Great pix Wolfstar, it's nice to be back enjoying the Dose, although it was exciting to be in DC for the Inauguration.

I never get tired of seeing the pomp and circumstance and hearing the music; I hope they show the prayer service again too.

We saw the fireworks when we were on a Metra train. They must have been really big, the train seemed to be a fair distance from the elipse.

Oh boy .. I hope that car has a shovel ... it's really really bad. They're recommending everyone stay off the roads .. visibility is about nil. Prayer sent for his safe return, and tell him to take an extra day, if he can. This my first time in 35 years living in winter .. and I sure never saw such a whiteout in New England growing up.

Oh jeez ... hopefully, he'll stay til the whiteout and dangerous driving conditions clear up .. not worth it. They've got parts of Lakeshore shut down .. no visibility.

If she didn't get out yesterday, I sort of doubt it. Not because DC was getting it early this morning, but because OH probably was already socked in. That was the reason we didn't try to get out early this morning, we knew we'd never get into O'Hare.
