A Day in the Life of President Bush (best photos of the week): 9-2-06
www.yahoo.com & other sources ^ | 9-2-06

Posted on 09/02/2006 4:06:56 PM PDT by silent_jonny

President and Mrs. Bush are spending Labor Day weekend at their ranch in Crawford, Texas.*

*This is based only on the information I could find. I could be wrong.

On Tuesday, September 5, the president will resume his series of speeches which remind us all of the true nature of our enemy (the Islamic fascists), while criticizing the critics of the WOT (the leftist appeasers).

With no other news available, today’s Dose will recap the best photos of the week.

Enjoy your Saturday visit to Sanity Island

Psalm 71

 1 In You, O LORD, I put my trust;
         Let me never be put to shame.
 2 Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape;
         Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
 3 Be my strong refuge,
         To which I may resort continually;
         You have given the commandment to save me,
         For You are my rock and my fortress.
         
 4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,
         Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
 5 For You are my hope, O Lord GOD;
         You are my trust from my youth.
 6 By You I have been upheld from birth;
         You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb.
         My praise shall be continually of You.
         
 7 I have become as a wonder to many,
         But You are my strong refuge.
 8 Let my mouth be filled with Your praise
         And with Your glory all the day.
         
 19 Also Your righteousness, O God, is very high,
         You who have done great things;
         O God, who is like You?
 20 You, who have shown me great and severe troubles,
         Shall revive me again,
         And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
 21 You shall increase my greatness,
         And comfort me on every side.
         
 22 Also with the lute I will praise You—
         And Your faithfulness, O my God!
         To You I will sing with the harp,
         O Holy One of Israel.
 23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You,
         And my soul, which You have redeemed.
 24 My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long;
         For they are confounded,
         For they are brought to shame
         Who seek my hurt.

Thank you, Kay :)

And the Scripture you chose is appropriate, seeing the headlines of the last few days.

For they are brought to shame
Who seek my hurt.

So many of the Psalms seem as if they could have been written in the last 5 years.

Hi Snugs, sorry to bother you with this off topic post, but I can think
of no better person to solve this dilemma than a Brit.
As you can see in this pic from the Full Monty, the lad is wearing a jersey with
an eagle. Is this a familiar sports team jersey, or is it just a cinema prop shirt?
And if its a teams actual jersey, What team would it be?

TIA, ThreePuttinDude

You know, until the last few years the Psalms seemed sort of remote to me. Boy, do they have relevance today! I pray Psalm 91 often, and others as well. I also pay attention to the Psalms that are used at Mass, for they are often quite relevant.

How do you do? Has anyone verified the President is at his home in Texas? I saw earlier that he might be.

Courage in your own

And how true of this good and decent man.

You are doing a wonderful job. THANK U .. ;) (I'm sure you're not needing this ..;)
