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.

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
Hope your Dad gets to feeling better. You are such a good daughter to take such good care of your parents when they are in need!
Wow! You are doing soooooo good at the "table" thingy! That one is beautiful!
Geez, not even the Top 40. I'm slipping.
When there is a large quake there are after shocks

I am listening on the computer to Mark Levin on WABC

Hi Snugs! Hoooooooooray for the dose!
Great opening comments!!
He's standing next to Hillary! in these pics....I don't equate standing next to Hillary and being "wooden," if you catch my drift.
BTW, why do Republican senators fall into Hillary's scheme of making it look like she works with folks on the other side of the aisle? The only reason she shows up for these photo-ops is to fool people into thinking she's bipartisan-reasonable.
Oh my, what a picture! WOW is right!
I watch the news all the time, and don't remember hearing about this Shoup guy and the threat against the VP.
He does look chah-ming, doesn't he?
Thanks for today's Dose, snugs.
I haven't seen the photos yet so I don't know their presentation / format -- rintense's "rule" was that pictures of The Odious Ones are okay if members of the Bush administration are also in the unphotoshopped photos. I know there are some FReepers who find it difficult to stomach them even with that mitigating factor, but the news is the news, as you say.
Actually it is not a table I cheated and did it in Photo Explosion
Because they're dumb and don't know how to lead. We work our butts off to get them elected and then they play silly games with the democrats--irritate their base and then begin losing.
Hillary will put her name on anything right now that makes her look like a centrist and the Reps are falling all over themselves, trying to get their pics made with her, THINKING it will help them. It helps NO ONE but hillary. It appears everyone but the lawmakers can see this. That's why I say they're losing their base.
How do you find Photo Explosion? That would really come in handy!
Almost all of those pictures of hillary - wow. She can scowl.
Thank you
And the first one of her smiling makes her look rather constipated! The second smiling picture doesn't even look like Hillary! to me.
Jolie sure has some skinny legs. :) Not pretty at all. IMO
