Thousands gather in Freedom Square to hear President George W. Bush speak in Tbilisi, Georgia, Tuesday, May 10, 2005. "When Georgians gathered here 16 years ago, this square had a different name. Under Lenin's steely gaze, thousands of Georgians prayed and sang, and demanded their independence, said President Bush. "The Soviet army crushed that day of protest, but they could not crush the spirit of the Georgian people."

Fox News' Carl Cameron said the crowd at the square in Georgia was about 100,000, to listen to Bush's speech. He is the first US President to visit Georgia.

It's difficult to imagine their president being only 37 years old, having so much responsibility as a trailblazer, but then, some of our founding fathers were about that age.

Thanks for the pix Gretchen, they are great. I can never quite feel comfortable when I see pictures of tight, knee-length military boots and goose-stepping though.

Great Dose tonight! In light of our first family being home safe and sound, I lift my glass (of wine, soda, milk, etc.) in a toast of relief. I bow my head in prayer and thanks.

Woo-hoo, Beezie! Does W have little treats in his pocket to "lure" her away from Laure? LOL
