You know, some people are mad about the "adoption" of the guy who shall remain nameless. I think that the Bushes are good enough parents, their efforts may just succeed. Makes me admire them more, because quite frankly, I just wouldn't have the stomach for it. : p
Vice President Dick Cheney (L) swears in NASA Administrator Michael Griffin (R) as his wife, Rebecca Griffin, holds the Bible during a ceremony in the Vice President's Ceremonial Office at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington June 28, 2005. Griffin is the 11th Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

I snagged this quote from the No Kilt/No Haggis thread because it has a very high "aahh" factor and I thought it would probably be appreciated around here!
FBI Director Robert Mueller (L) and U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales are reflected in a glass tabletop as they address a news conference at the Justice Department in Washington June 29, 2005. The pair made remarks after President George W. Bush gave U.S. authorities new powers on Wednesday to block assets of companies believed to be helping North Korea, Iran and Syria pursue nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.

President Bush is surrounded by members of Congress as he signs House Resolution 1812, the Patient Navigator Outreach and Chronic Disease Prevention Act of 2005, in the Oval Office Wednesday, June 29, 2005, in Washington. joining the President are, from left, Congressman Bob Menendez, D-N.J.; Congresswoman Deborah Pryce, R-Ohio; Senator Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., and Congressman Joe Barton, R-Texas
Whoops wrong date on the speech photos of course they should say 28th June 2005, me being clever Yahoo missed the date so I thought I would put it in and then got it wrong LOL

Howdy Gretchen, Thanks for the "Dose"
Hi Starwise--
Hope you're enjoying the summer!
You probably know the Pres. visited with families of soldiers who had died, before he gave his speech. He teared up at various times throughout the speech. Very touching. I don't see how anyone who really watches him can doubt his sincerity and caring.

Here is a warrior at Camp Pendleton in San Diego
One-eyed sniper will return to Iraq
By: J. Stryker Meyer - North County Times
Last Friday, Camp Pendleton graduated 11 of the 27 candidates who started its sniper class. And the honor graduate of that class ---- who declined to be interviewed ---- is a corporal who will soon return to Iraq for his third tour of duty in that angry land.
During his second tour of duty in Iraq, this young man lost one eye to encounters with the enemy. Friday, this proud graduate received the Jim Gularti sniper school award, named after the former Oceanside Police Department officer and Vietnam-era Marine sniper who works as a civilian instructor at the sniper school.
Gularti, who attended the graduation, said, "This young Marine epitomizes Corps values and family pride. He recovered from personal tragedy to excel in a select group of Marines. His father is Cambodian. He told me, 'All I have is my son, it's my way of paying back the U.S. for helping Cambodia in the '60s.' This family appreciates all that is right about this country, in some ways, more than those who are born here and take all that it offers for granted."
Good evening great to hear from you
Hello that is a cute photo
The MSM will never, ever "get it." I just hope and pray the "normal" people will see thru their bias. I don't think we can bring down the MSM, but we CAN influence people around us, one by one.
I had told my family that the Pres. speech was mandatory viewing. They moaned and groaned. They ended up coming in late anyway (they work till dark in the summer!), but the speech was replayed so they had to watch it anyway! They WERE impressed.
WOW....I sure love a guy in uniform.....LOL
Well, Mike....what did you think of the speech...I saw your comments on the live thread last night...he was awesome!.......btw I ordered two of Rush's Gitmo tees today..one for me and one for my son Jonathan, he'll love it.
