QUOTE OF THE DAY
President Bush Discusses Terror Plot Upon Arrival in Wisconsin
Austin Straubel International Airport
Green Bay, Wisconsin
THE PRESIDENT: The recent arrests that our fellow citizens are now learning about are a stark reminder that this nation is at war with Islamic fascists who will use any means to destroy those of us who love freedom, to hurt our nation.
want to thank the government of Tony Blair and officials in the United Kingdom for their good work in busting this plot. I thank the officials in Washington, D.C. and around our country who gather intelligence and who work to protect the American people. The cooperation on this venture was excellent -- cooperation between U.K. and U.S. authorities and officials was solid. And the cooperation amongst agencies within our government was excellent.
This country is safer than it was prior to 9/11. We've taken a lot of measures to protect the American people. But obviously, we're still not completely safe, because there are people that still plot and people who want to harm us for what we believe in. It is a mistake to believe there is no threat to the United States of America. And that is why we have given our officials the tools they need to protect our people.
Travelers are going to be inconvenienced as a result of the steps we've taken. I urge their patience and ask them to be vigilant. The inconvenience is -- occurs because we will take the steps necessary to protect the American people.
Again, I appreciate the close cooperation between our government and the government of the United Kingdom. The American people need to know we live in a dangerous world, but our government will do everything we can to protect our people from those dangers.

Daughter and I are going down to see my mother tomorrow. We had thought about going down today but she was busy at the company so she could not get away. The puppy has been behaving today. She will be staying with our granddaughter and her 2 dogs.
Me neither.
Congratulations you go clear by 2 again.
On a more serious note how are you and the family coping?

Under 20?
We are doing as well as can be expected. I got my hair done today before our trip tomorrow and the lady that is next to the lady who does my hair said she had just heard about Don and was so sorry about it. She said a lot of doctors do not know what they are doing. Guess she hears all sorts of stories about them. Our daughter is having a hard time at the company. She has tried to clean out her dad's desk but she has only been able to do one drawer. She can take her time or get someone there to do it. The others are about as bad off as we are. Most of them had been working with hubby for many years and in one case, he was hubby's boss at NASA way back in 1966.
