I know that on the Presidents trip to Atlanta two weeks ago he met with a family who had lost their son in Iraq. The President spent over thirty minutes with this family and it was quite obvious how touched everyone was by this visit. And I know that none of us knew about this visit until the last moment.....he does not go around advertising it. I spent two hours with him and he didnt' mention it until after some picture taking....he then excused himself to visit with the family. We all got tears just at his demeanor and knowing how important it was for him to honor this fallen soldier.y
Also had a chance to tell him what our subdivision does for each returning vet and he thanked me profusely and said how important it is for us to honor our military.
God Bless President Bush....

I will thank you too. He does prefer for families to have privacy but I hope some come out and speak up. He really doesn't deserve the treatment that the press is giving to Ms. Sheehan. It's harmful to everyone including Ms. Sheehan.
