A Day in the Life of President Bush - with special thanks to Tony Snow - (photos) - 10.4.06

In a busy day of campaigning today, President Bush made two fundraising appearances starting with a reception for Representative Rick Renzi in Scottsdale, Arizona where he also signed H.R. 5441 - the Homeland Security Appropriations Act funding the border fence - and then a reception for Colorado gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez in Englewood, Colorado. In his speeches he emphasized the importance of electing Republicans in the interest of our nation's security and strength.

Also today First Lady Laura appeared at two Republican fundraisers, one for Representative Curt Weldon in Springfield, Pennsylvania, and later for Representative Tom Reynolds in Amherst, New York and was interviewed on a youth radio station in Buffalo and attended a mock trial.

In addition, the Bush economy achieved new heights today as the Dow closed at 11,850...........the highest in history!

Today we are doing a special tribute, not only to our great President, but also to our friend and fellow Freeper, Tony Snow. If you'd like to contribute comments, we welcome your input, but we ask that all comments remain positive toward both the President and Tony to keep this our 'Sanity Island.'

This is for you, Tony...............you are a perfect compliment to the President whom we deeply respect and admire. You are a Godly man - witty, intelligent and combative in a gentlemanly sort of way, just as he is, and have proven to be the perfect spokesman for President Bush. You are, as he is, a joy to watch as you defend the facts against the onslaught of seemingly braindead pseudo-journalists' attacks disguised as questions, and we smile every day as you clean their intellectual clocks in defense of the President's strong, well reasoned, pro-American policies.

Many of us have prayed for you through your illness, thanking God for your recovery, and as you made the difficult decision to leave broadcasting to become President Bush's Press Secretary, and we thank God for not only your health but also your decision to sacrifice much to serve your country as you serve the President.

We know that you are self-effacing and humble (another characteristic you share with your boss), and won't take credit for the changes in style at the White House, but we also know that you have had a hand in a stronger, feistier White House presentation, and for that we thank you.

On this thread we express our deep and well-founded admiration for President Bush daily, but on this day, we have chosen to include you in our tribute to jobs well done.

Thank you, Tony, for all you do for your country, your President, and us!

Enjoy your trip to Sanity Island on the Daily Dose! These are great times to be a Bushbot..........AND a Snowflake!!

That's like asking, which one of your children do you like the best, but if I had to choose: the cuss jar.

That goes way back to my culture. As a child, if you said a bad word, you had to put your allowence into the "cuss jar", which would then go to the collection at church following Sunday.

That was from Tony's trip with the President and the PM of Japan to Elvis Presley's home at Graceland.

Thanks for letting me know.

The SnowFlakes and I listen to just about every Press Briefing that is broadcast, and read the transcript otherwise (well once, I didn't read the transcript).

We like to think of you, not as the Press Secretary, but as the "President's Spokesman", and of course, the "Teacher".

I LOVE all the Tony Snow photos/montages and know he will love them too!

REQUEST: Could you also post your favorite photos/montages of the President -- I'm hopeful he (and Laura) will read this DOSE as well!

I don't always get to participate in the evenings, but I made a point to be here for this one.
