The president spoke with UN SG Kofi Annan about the international force being assembled for Lebanon; the Iranian regime's statement on its nuclear program; and the need to improve the situation in Darfur. He attended a fundraiser for Senator George Allen, R-VA.
President Bush met with Rockey Vaccarella, Louisiana victim of Hurricane Katrina, to discuss rebuilding efforts there.

Israel supposedly went to war to get their two soldiers back. Then surrendered in return for Hezbollah not firing anymore rockets. Israel left their two soliders to be abused in Hezbollah's hands.
What would you call a people who would do that?
To: Suzy Quzy
Condi is not going wobbly. If she were, she would be replaced.
Some of the commentators and certainly some of the people who post on some of the news threads have hidden agendas. Don't let people get you all upset. Try to remain calm and look at all that;s happening. Kofi Annan is irrelevant.

Condi doesn't control the UN. They don't listen to us anymore than we listen to them.

Protest what? It's a TV show. I agree it was a sleazy thing to do but what can you do other than not watch the show?

Thank you for tonight's Dose, Gretchen! Great job, as always.
If we had this President for another four years, I think we'd be great.
Well, that is one thing we can agree on Mr. Vaccarella!

Why are we discussing the UN or John Stewart or Israel on this thread? Can't we focus on President Bush?

we haven't been hit again [since 9/11]. That is so casually dismissed these days. Reprise needed.

Thank you!!!
What part do you want to discuss? The part we love or the part that makes mistakes, that must be mentioned every time a positive is cited.
Hope you are healing quickly and will soon be brand new!

Could you tell me more about the two Jewish soldiers? I've not been able to keep up with the news recently.

I watched the Talk Show Magazine convention on C-Span this morning.
One thing really stuck out. One of the speakers, a consultant, made the point that few people care about the war in Iraq. And urged talk show hosts to go on to other topics. He said, "Where to take your kids this weekend." would draw a bigger audience. He also said that what station managers want him to do most is find good talk show hosts.
In Cincinnati, Ohio, liberal talk show host Jerry Springer (a Cincinnati native and former mayor) was replaced by a sports show on 50,000 watt station, WCKY. Springer is now heard on a less dominant regional station, WSAI. WSAI is just 1,000 watts. Err America is just not doing well.
Springer told the Talk Radio Convention that liberal radio was going to take off any year now. He also lead the audience to believe he was not getting paid. He said, "I love Talk Radio.. I have to love it.. I am not making a penny at it."

Hezbollah has the two Jewish soldiers. They showed a picture fo them a few days ago. They appear to be alive and well. That is about it.

Thanks, Purple and onyx. I laughed so hard when I saw that man say he wished the president could serve another term. CNN even showed it, but I'll bet now they wish they hadn't :-)
