A day in the life of President Bush (4/30/06): photos of correspondents dinner
Yahoo News Photos ^ | 4/30/06

Posted on 04/30/2006 11:40:12 AM PDT by Wolfstar

PRESIDENTIAL NEWS OF THE DAY: President and Mrs. Bush attended St. John's Church this morning, as is their custom when spending the weekend at the White House. Last night they attended the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner, where the President and his "alter ego," comedian Steve Bridges, stole the show.

The best review I found is on USA Today's website. Since I'm not sure how much of their material we can excerpt, I'll just provide a link. The article includes a nearly complete transcript of the President's and Mrs. Bridges routine.

Looks like Ace won a tour of Burbank--LOL! Did Jay drive him around the parking lot or something? :)

Definitely Steve from F & F. And not only is Harmon married, so is Steve. Wife Kathy, son Peter and daughters Mary and Sally. Probably just a coincidence. They DO know each other because Harmon is someone they have on a lot to comment about National Intelligence matters. She is the ranking Dem on the House Intel Committee and I've seen her on Fox News and F & F many times.

..."Strategery" at it's best!

LOL! Sure was. The expression on GWB's face while his alter ego delivered the zingers was priceless.

Doesn't the caption say something about Ace winning a trip to Paris? Or did I misread it? Or is it Paris, Kentucky? ;-)

Yeah. We can't see who else was with them when that shot was snapped.

She is the ranking Dem on the House Intel Committee and I've seen her on Fox News and F & F many times.

"Intelligence" in Washington is a sometime thing. ;-)

I see enough of Harmon in the district where I live. She ran for governor, finished 3rd in the Dim primary, then ran for her old congressional seat again. Don't need to see her on my TV also. Barf!

Living in a barely still rural county I see the farms being sold off for housing. The land is now worth millions. All the time the farmer worked the land he barely made ends meet. The weather always being the enemy. The cost of fuel rising, having trouble finding farmworkers, etc.

After all that the government decides it's your partner????????

Our farmer friend inherited when his dad died. They had worked the farm for over fifty years. Dairy farming 24/7 and 365. When the farmer sold off a piece of the land due to taxes, the IRS was at the closing and took just about all of the sale money.

Yes, LOL! Although Paris, KY seems more appropriate. It's smack in the middle of horse country.

Yep :) I want to get the current thread over 10,000 first and that probably won't happen until Tuesday night. So Hopefully the new thread will be ready to go on Wednesday morning.

You are writing that to perhaps the strongest anti-tax person on this forum. Taxation at all levels of government is so rapacious and out of control that one day I think we may not be able to keep anything we earn or acquire. What they don't outright admit to is a tax, they call a "fee," or a "fine." (They criminalize more and more behavior mostly to be able to collect fines.) They tack "fees" onto all sorts of things. Phone and utility bills, for example. Government greed is the worst.

Karl is such a dork.

By all accounts, he has a WONDERFUL sense of humor.
