A day in the life of President Bush (5/27/06): photos & news
WhiteHouse.gov & Yahoo News ^ | 5/27/06

Posted on 05/27/2006 5:19:39 PM PDT by Wolfstar

PRESIDENTIAL NEWS OF THE DAY: President and Mrs. Bush and their long-time friends, former Commerce Secretary Don Evans and his wife, are spending Memorial Day weekend together at Camp David. There is speculation in the media that the President may ask Mr. Evans to become the next Treasury Secretary.

Today, the President traveled to the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, to give the commencement address to the Corps of Cadets.

SCHEDULE UPDATE: NOTE -- so far, new Press Secretary Tony Snow has not been annoucing the Week Ahead in his press briefings. Scott McClellan has stopped doing it regularly some time ago, and I can't help but wonder if it isn't due to security concerns.

_ Rwanda's President Paul Kagame will meet with President Bush in Washington May 31 for talks on development, AIDS relief, events in Sudan, and other issues.

_ President Bush will welcome President Manuel Zelaya Rosales of Honduras to the White House on June 5, 2006, to highlight the friendship and cooperation between the United States and Honduras, an important regional ally. The two leaders will discuss the expansion of free trade and economic growth, and continuing cooperation in areas of mutual interest.

_ The First Lady will speak June 6 at the first 'Helping America's Youth' regional conference, at the University Place Conference Center, Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis.

_ Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi of Japan will visit the President at the White House on June 29, 2006.

_ President Bush will welcome Prime Minister Harper of Canada to the White House on July 6, 2006.

Now that is something. A "challenge coin".

Interesting tradition. Wonder how it originated.

Good evening.

Just take a look at the unflattering picture SeeBS has on their site. (It's on the right)

CBS bias

being the *Goat* of your class I guess is a distinction....lol

Of course, at West Point low-man is the class goat because the Naval Academy mascot is Bill the Goat. I have no doubt that at Annapolis, low man is a donkey, because that's the West Point mascot. LOL!

Think it's probably more like "I'm sorry Barn - I'll pay more attention next time. Please don't ignore me!" LOL

My goodness 2 - 3 weeks that is amazing.

I would never cope with having to have at least a day off per month with dad for hospital appointments and then often another half day.

In fact I am well over half way through my holiday and we are only just under half way through the year.

I don't know, but it seems like a good idea. "You've been the worst academic student, now overcome that and become the best officer you can".

I know if the CINC gave me a challenge coin, I would darned sure try and live up to the challenge. LOL

iluvgeorgie posted the photo of Barney being comforted by the President after he was dropped on the tarmac at WACO a couple of years ago.

I then posted the photo of him landing on the tarmac "the incident".
