How very wonderful for you! I am sure you did a good job, and I know you will be contributing to the effort to reform Social Security. Thank you so much!

WOW! Good for you! And, thank you for sharing this special event. I, too, think our good President is very genuine in his concern for people and his love for our great country. That's why I trust, respect and love him!

Hey GrannyHeart!! Doin' Georgia proud! I think I know where some pics are, let me finish getting kids in bed and I'll be back.

Glad to see you posting. Didn't follow the thread closely, but read of your crash. Hope you're mending well.

Congratulations, Grannyheart! You make me green with envy.

WB rbd3! and to you grannyheart, congratulations!! What a wonderful thrill for you! I still get a warm feeling when I saw him, and was about 5 feet from him, it was one of the biggest thrill of my life! What an honor to be selected!!

I don't really know why people don't want change, they certainly did when Clinton proposed it. The only thing I can guess is that the media is skewing his explanation, and people outside FR are not necessarily aware of that. Tell him to keep seeing people. His sincerely can't be missed when one sees him in person!

[gidget7]

oops, make that sincerity!!

Great job, with the President and with your first post! And welcome to FR.

Great post! Congratulations on meeting President Bush! (color me jealous!) Thanks for sharing your experience. Hope you or somebody else can post pictures.

I LOVE our great president and enjoy hearing first-hand accounts of those who deal with him directly. Thank you again for sharing, and for your work in promoting SS reform. While you're at it, add the Fair Tax Act (HR25/S25) to your list; its prime sponsor is Rep. John Linder of Georgia, and it's REAL federal tax reform.

Bless your heart! I know if I ever had the same opportunity I would be floating forever. Thanks for sharing your special moments with us.

Funny you should mention the Fair Tax. On Saturday we went to a fundraiser for a candidate for House district 106 and Congressman John Linder was there.

He came up and gave me a hug and then stated for all to hear.."I kept waiting for you to bring up the Fair Tax while on stage with the President"....when I told him that I had considered it but thought better when I knew the only reason I was there was SS reform and didn't want to rock the boat...Linder thought I could have brought the house down with the Fair Tax comment. Heck, I can think of a couple of other issues I could have talked about...FR gives one plenty to think about!!

Ahhh, another great story you have. Glad to hear you're well aware of what a fine legislator Georgia has in John Linder. I've never met him, but I think the FTA is the best crafted piece of legislation I've ever seen. As you know, we've made great progress, and our prospects have never been better. Again, in large part due to our outstanding president, W.
