Today President Bush traveled to Parkersburg West Virginia to deliver remarks and participate in a conversation on Social Security at West Virginia University. He toured the Bureau of Public Debt and met with employees there.

This afternoon the President held his second Cabinet meeting of his second term, and made a statement to the press and answered questions afterward.

Enjoy your trip to Sanity Island, and the Daily Dose!!

Quote of the Day: Tomorrow I will be leaving for Rome, leading a delegation to attend the services for His Holiness Pope John Paul, II. What a great man. It will be my honor to represent our country in a ceremony marking a remarkable life, a person who stood for freedom and human dignity.

I also urge the Congress to successfully conclude budget negotiations. The House passed the budget resolution; the Senate has passed the resolution. We look forward to working with the leadership to successfully conclude those negotiations. It's important we get a budget, a budget which will show the American people that we will spend their money wisely; a budget that shows that we know how to set priorities -- winning the war on terror, protecting our homeland; a budget that says we can cut the deficit in half in five years; and a budget that will encourage economic growth and vitality.

I appreciate the fact that it looks like that we're going to get a solid cap on discretionary spending, one that we agree with. It's also important for the senators and the members of the House of Representatives to understand that a good, solid budget that helps us meet objectives is one that deals with mandatory spending items. And we've presented some meaningful, realistic, common-sense reforms on the mandatory spending side.
