Although Laura was postively hilarious, she concluded her remarks on a serious and loving note. She said that she's always believed people choose their spouses to complete something lacking in themselves. She said as an only child, she found her brothers and sisters in the Bush family. She said that she's introverted, while her husband is extroverted. She poked fun at herself in saying that, as a librarian, she spent 12 hours a day in the library, so it was amazing she ever met George. She also told the crowd she loves her George.

Pinging you to a Sunday Dose. Lots of photos today, and they deserve their own Dose thread.

PHOTO OF THE DAY: A mischievious President Bush answers a reporter's question before getting into his limo outside St. John's Church today. GWB told reporters he is proud of his wife's comedy routine last night at the banquet.

Leaving church today. (This certainly has been a lovely tribute-to-Laura weekend on the Dose.)

The First Lady smiles as she "interrupts" her husband and prepares to roast him last night. Behind her, the President looks like the cat that ate the canary. (News reports recently have noted Laura's sky-high approval ratings, but sniped that she "doesn't say" anything, comparing her unfavorably to Hillary Clinton for that reason. I suspect GWB and Laura cooked this routine up as a subtle response.)

GWB roars with laughter at his wife's jokes about him.

Our Dubya, who's rarely at a loss for a quip himself, thoroughly enjoyed Laura's routine.

The President did blush when Laura told the joke about how he tried to milk a horse, only it was a male horse. I think this is one of the cutest photos I've ever seen of our Dubya. (Blushing is an autonomic response, and I'm sure he didn't expect it to happen.)

The President and Cedric the Entertainer, who was the evening's entertainment headliner (although he was totally upstaged by the First Lady).

I really enjoyed the banquet last night. They always have something special cooked up for the correspondants!

Laura gets a standing ovation after her routine. At left is White House press secretary Scott McClellan, second from left is Jim Angle of Fox News, and second from right is Ron Hutcheson of Knight Ridder. The President looks so proud of her.

MSM seem so enamored of our First Lady's performance last night and have been running sound bites most of the day. She was fabulous.

Vice President Dick Cheney comically raps his glass with a spoon to quiet the crowd at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. Steve Scully (R) of C-SPAN laughs on a night when the head table was kept in stitches by first lady Laura Bush and comedian Cedric the Entertainer. Laura did not spare Dick, Lynne, or Don Rumsfeld during her roast.

The VP jokingly peers into the crowd.

Oh my, I don't think I've ever seen a picture of President Bush blushing! How cute!
The milking the horse joke must have hit him as a surprise! Good for Laura.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice cracks up as comedian Cedric the Entertainer tells jokes about her at the dinner. Cedric had a tough act to follow, as the First Lady stole the show with a roast of her husband. But Cedric did have some really funny lines about Condi, playing off her unusual first name. He joked that there are two women: Condi, who is the nice one, and Leeza, who is the one with street smarts. Then he did a series of jokes describing how "Condi" and "Leeza" would react differently to world events.

Here's a few more photos of Laura's tour of western states last week to promote her youth initiatives.
The First Lady greets participants at the Helping America's Youth event, Thursday, April 28, 2005, at the Friends of the Children, in Portland, Ore.

Laura hugs Regis Kindred, 15, before addressing participants at the Helping America's Youth event.

The next pic was at the Alameda, CA, event. The First Lady looks positively radient, and clearly she has never lost her love of teaching.
