Today our courageous and intrepid Commander in Chief and Leader of the Free World......a world freer because of his courage and leadership, made a surprise visit to Baghdad. It was his second visit to Iraq, the first being made at Thanksgiving in 2003, and not announced until he had already departed Iraq. This trip was different. Air Force One landed at Baghdad airport and the President with a handful of reporters, and his Press Secretary, Tony Snow took a Black Hawk helicopter into the Green Zone.

He met with new Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, who was informed only shortly before the Presidential visit, and they met together with the newly formed Iraqi Cabinet in a video conference with the President's Cabinet who were gathered at Camp David, Maryland in a remarkable moment in history. He also met with Iraq's President Jalal Talabani during a private meeting to discuss Iraq at the U.S. Embassy.

The President then spoke to military personnel and Embassy personnel at the U.S. Embassy, thanking the troops, and giving a moving speech about the noble mission in Iraq. He was deeply emotional as he discussed their sacrifice and their accomplishment, and the pride that Americans have in them, as well as the amazing progress in the newly sovereign Iraq.

First Lady Laura appeared today at a fundraiser for Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum while her husband was 'away.' She spoke there of her pride in her husband. She also appeared at a fundraiser for New Jersey's Tom Kean.

Here are the President's comments during video conference

And here are the pool reports from Drudge...........some good reads...............right HERE

The President is, as I type this, on his way home. Dear Lord, please continue to protect our brave, strong President as he leads this nation through perilous times. Keep him close to Your side, we pray!

Enjoy your trip to Sanity Island on the Daily Dose. It has NEVER been a better day to be a BUSHBOT!!

[MinuteGal]

I just got in from a long day filled with various appointments. Thanks heavens you pinged me. I wouldn't have missed these photos for the world.

My favorite is the one with President Bush and the military guys and gals. Viewing the emotions on their faces as they strain to touch and even just look at their commander-in-chief made my day.

Yes, Leni the 'President with the Troops' are my favorites as well. .....very moving and their mutual love & respect comes shining through.

alnick's post said it best:

You know, looking at those pics of our service men and women apparently thrilled to be with their CIC, I can't help but think about the poll numbers touted by Old Media and the citizens swayed by the fake "news." All one need do is look at how loved President Bush is by the very people who are laying their lives on the line on his orders to understand that something is not right in those "news" stories.

[PureSolace]

Ohio,
Thank you so very much for all of your hard work in putting this FABULOUS Dose together!! The pictures are wonderful - - I've been waiting for this all day and was certainly not disappointed!

Best,
SC

[SnarlinCubBear]

Great! Now I know the guy who knew the guy who wired that room in Baghdad!

Seriously, you must be thrilled to see this. Thank you for all you have done.

[ShayTex]

Hi Ohio,

What a great day! I have recorded, listened and beamed all day. I was also very concerned for the safety of our dear President until he was out of Iraq. Thank you and others for posting a wonderful Dose. In spite of the Dems and the MSM this President has made his place in history and they can't stand it. I am just so proud of him and of course Laura.

[NordP]

snugs, you are no blob. With a similar haircut, and probably a week or so of stress free living, you would look exactly the same as the earlier picture. You have been doing such noble and wonderful things for your Dad. Remember, you're dedicating a large portion of your life to his well-being. I think you are doing the right thing and have your priorities in the right place...and again...you are no blob.

[NordP]

Me too - I was watching and crying and cheering and yelling...MY PRESIDENT IS A STUD!!!!

[tommix2]

I already have the DVD recorder locked and loaded :-) Send me one too if you can please.

[SnarlinCubBear]

You threw a great party tonight. Thank you!

Done deal my friend, it will be in the mail in the AM

Great day today, huh :-)

"Thanks for the heads up on the replay of Pres. Bush in Baghdad at 9 pm PDT on C-span.

I don't trust C-span, so I'll check in ahead of time.

Sometimes they start early so they make us miss it. Sometimes they play a rabid leftie so we have to sit through a major propaganda load of altered reality waiting for our sane leader. "


HUD spending bill now.

I want to see the President.

"The new minster of defense in Iraq, Abdul-Qadir Muhammed Jasim, told Inhofe: "I hate CNN."

This was said in English and the reporters heard it!"

Love this! I wonder what CNN's response was?

BTW, love your tag line. :-)

[Merlinator]

Would you be so kind as to send me a copy?

[MJY1288]

FR Mail me an address where you want it sent and I will send you one in the AM
