A Day in the Life of President Bush (photos): 6.16.05
whitehouse.gov; yahoo.com ^ | Thursday June 16, 2005 | Snugs

Posted on 06/16/2005 2:54:10 PM PDT by snugs

Yesterday President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney and their wives attended a Congressional Picnic at the White House.

Today President Bush attended National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast at Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C along with members of Congress and former Cabinet Minister Tom Ridge.

The President also voiced doubts over the elections taking place in Iran “The June 17th presidential elections are sadly consistent with this oppressive record. Iran's rulers denied more than a thousand people who put themselves forward as candidates, including popular reformers and women who have done so much for the cause of freedom and democracy in Iran.“

Later in the day he spoke about Medicare at the Department of Health and Human Services in Washington.

It was also announced that the President will welcome Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Ja'afari to the White House on June 24, 2005

Vice-President Dick Cheney was due to meet Canadian Agriculture Minister Doug Horner first on the “menu” was said to be discussions regarding reopening the border to Canadian cattle.

U.S. Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, holds a press briefing with reporters in advance of her trip to the Middle East

The President’s father the Former President Bush is in Weimar, in the eastern region of Germany.

Former US Secretary of State Colin Powell and former prime ministers Bob Hawke of Australia and Mahathir Mohamad of Malaysia are attending a global leaders forum in Kuala Lumpur.

Unlikely political allies, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and Hillary Clinton join forces to push for a new medical records bill which will allow hospitals to share patient information they said is necessary to prevent life-threatening mistakes, during a joint press conference at George Washington University Hospital in Washington.

Apologies to those who it may offend for posting the photos of Hillary that follow but if I had cropped them it would have looked strange and would IMHO be doing the very thing that we Conservative criticise the democrats of censoring and presenting news in a bias fashion.

Enjoy your visit to Sanity Island

Well it was 8 years ago now. I said on the American side at a motel which was part of the Scottish Inns group. I was disappointed in the American side in as much it seemed very run down a lot of old factories that just seemed to have been abandoned.

I did not have a concept of what Niagara was going to be like I just imagined the falls not anything else. The Canadian side I loved the flowered clock and park in general.

We also went up one of towers at night and watched the lights on the falls which was lovely.

Yes we did go on the Maid of the Mist and that was wonderful I still have my plastic mac and I took loads of photos one day when I get my scanner working I will post some of them as this was pre me having a digital camera.

Though my passport has expired it is still one of my most treasure possessions because it has my Egyptian visa and a stamp with Niagara on it.

I almost never post abuse unless the post is really awful, and clearly breaks an FR rule.

The Mods don't ban lightly. It was most likely because of a very recent sign on date that is happened. I'm sure they never ban people because of one abuse post.

Back to the Marriage subject, one of the things that Pastor Dan said to my Wife and I was very profound, he explained that the highest level of marriage "Together as One" could only be reached with the help of God, and that help would only be possible through Grace,

IMHO, No truer words have ever been spoken to me

Thanks for your impression of the Falls. Ahhh, the Flowered Clock. People just love it and take lots of pictures.

The Maid of the Mist is awesome. My goal is to take the helicopter ride over the Falls as soon as I can talk someone into going with me.

Your Pastor Dan sounds like a wise man.

My husband and I have often talked about the spiritual dimension of marriage, and said that without it, the depth just wouldn't be there. And that includes every part of being married.

That's why the First Couple is so special. You know that they have that spiritual dimension to their marriage..........which I'm sure is why they have spoken so often about how their marriage is strengthening in spite of the stress in their lives.

God is blessing their commitment to HIM, and to each other.

It's just COOL, that's all!

Prayers up, for your Mum, and your Dad. You are such a devoted daughter, I'm very touched at your loving attention to your parents.

I miss my parents every single day.

I'm always concerned for my brother and his family in San Diego, and my sister and her family in San Francisco.

Earthquakes are such a bother. At least we get warnings of hurricanes.

They wouldn't leave California for anything. Sheeshhh.......

She didn't break any bones or anything?

I heard she kept her later appointments.

She's frail, but she's tough!
