The president went to Charlotte, NC, to make remarks on the War on Terror, and welcomed various sports champions to the White House.

Laura Bush participated in some official duties -- see photo captions below.

Welcome to Sanity Island!

QUOTES: My biggest job is to protect the American people. That became abundantly clear on September the 11th. ... I've never forgotten that day. I've never forgotten the lessons learned, and so when we saw a threat, we got to take it seriously. Oceans could no longer protect us. The enemy was able to strike us and kill, and they were dangerous.

It's an honor to welcome outstanding athletes to the White House. I welcome the athletes and their coaches. We offer our congratulations, and we're thrilled to call you national champs.

This is the first time I've posted the backside of the president for Photo of the Day -- this is great.
