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

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.

President Bush is greeted by Freedom Corps Volunteer, Cadet Heather DiSilvio, at Stewart Air National Guard Base in Newburgh, N.Y. What an honor for this young woman to be the person from the cadet corps on hand to greet the Commander-in-Chief.

Good evening thanks for the dose. I have had problems periodically with the White House website one night I could not get the photos from there.

Is West Point similar to our Sandhurst where the future officers train?

Perfect "Photo of the Day." I watched it on the stream on the West Point website. Thanks to DrDeb for that heads-up... much more enjoyable to watch it there without inane commentary and edits by the cable nets.
