June 15, 2006 -- WHO'D have thought it possible even a month ago? President Bush is getting his mojo back.
The president just had the best week of his second term, perhaps of his entire presidency - and the end of the investigation of Karl Rove, which would have been the headline grabber not long ago, had little to do with it.
Instead, the president's brilliantly conceived and executed trip to Baghdad - giving exactly the right boost at the right time to new Iraqi prime minister Nouri al-Maliki - capped off seven days that included the forming of a full Iraqi Cabinet and the success of the U.S. military in locating, bombing and killing Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the sadistic Jordanian-born insurgency leader that Osama bin Laden once called the "prince of Iraq."
Equally significant, the night Zarqawi died, American forces staged 17 raids on insurgent targets. By Monday, they had launched 140 more. On the day of the president's visit, 75,000 troops fanned out over Baghdad, ordered to clear the Iraqi capital of the violence and anarchy that has plagued it for months.

It is WONDERFUL to see that you are still here!
Yes, Yes, we're all doing dandy.
We live in MS now.
GOOD to see you! I am thrilled, in fact!
I'm so happy to hear that you finished your move and are settled, the last I knew you were still in the process of moving and your hubby had a nasty accident in the middle of it all :-(
So are you happy in your new home? Meet any local Freepers yet? I don't see how they could possibly match the awesome California Freepers, though ;-)
Yes, quite happy and husband is A-OK.
Oh yes, I have met several MS FReepers.
A couple of months back, we all toured Governor Haley Barbour's mansion!
Again, I am thrilled you're back!
When you have time, please write me a quick note in FR mail and tell me how you're doing and what all you've been doing!
Touring Gov. Barbour's mansion must have been a treat, especially if it was combined with meeting local Freepers. I'm now officially pea-green with envy :-)
I'm going to celebrate the 4th tomorrow by having breakfast at my computer, I'll write you a Freepmail with some of doings then... this way you'll read it sometime after having coffee tomorrow so you won't fall asleep reading my boring doings LOL
Happy Fourth of July in the meantime!
