News that the turnover of sovereignty to Iraq's provisional government...a note from then National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice read, "Mr. President, Iraq is sovereign." The two leaders immediately shake hands in a public, and yet intensely private, moment.

Their joint televised message to the Iraqi people. Amazing how similar their body language is in these two screen captures shown side by side.

During the Clinton administration, the foreign leader whom Clinton visited with most often was Yasser Arafat. In the GWB era, the President has met most often with Tony Blair.

This photo was taken at the Blair home in the UK.

President Bush and National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley participate in a teleconference with Prime Minister Tony Blair of the United Kingdom, Sunday morning, Aug. 6, 2006 at the Bush Ranch in Crawford, Texas. With the news that broke on Thursday, we now know what they discussed.

Their friendship endures and appears to deepen with time. Their work is not done. "This work continues. This story goes on. And an angel still rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm."
