President George W. Bush addresses the press during a meeting about medicare in the Roosevelt Room April 23, 2007. "It took a monumental effort by a lot of citizens around the country to make the options that our seniors were given easy to understand," said President Bush. "In other words, we reformed Medicare and gave seniors a lot of choices, and it took a lot of loving Americans a lot of time to make these choices available for our senior citizens. Now that the plan is in place, 39 million have signed up for it, drug costs are less than anticipated, and the cost to the taxpayer is about $200 billion less than anticipated."

Laura and I are deeply saddened by the death of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin. President Yeltsin was an historic figure who served his country during a time of momentous change. He played a key role as the Soviet Union dissolved, helped lay the foundations of freedom in Russia, and became the first democratically elected leader in that country's history. I appreciate the efforts that President Yeltsin made to build a strong relationship between Russia and the United States. We offer our sincerest condolences to the Yeltsin family and to the Russian people.
Actually, they’re worse than that, but I am not going to soil this thread by describing them accurately. :0)
I love the photos of him accepting his #43 team jersey too!!
Good night (again) everybody!!
Thanks for visiting SANITY ISLAND!
G’Night, Onyx!
Thanks again for making it possible for us.
Yes, all the pics of him were good....though I thought he looked tired in some of them. I can see why, but hate to see it. God bless him!
What movie did you watch tonight?
Love this picture..Thank you for the Dose, onyx.
Prayers for our troops, our President and our nation.
It was a surprise more than a scare as we so rarely have power cuts.

Good to know they’re rare.
No worries... just want to keep this thread away from the madness!
You are very welcome. Good to see the Bot graphic is still in use.
I will do your toaster Wednesday evening as I am round a friend’s house tonight as I am going out for the day on Wednesday but will be returning home after visiting dad at the hospital in the evening.
I think it was about month 6 weeks ago
This is a good place.
I echo the sentiments expressed so well by ohioWfan....thank you for EVERYTHING you’ve done to bring us this life saving thread. I worry so much for our country but being with....and learning from....others on the DOSE who love America and support our good President helps keep my blood pressure down. Your work has helped create an extended family that is appreciated beyond words. Again,rintense, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
That is a great photo—GWB looks so happy! Bless those guys for helping him to have a respite!
Was reading up the synopsis of that movie at the IMDB and it sounds a pretty good movie that I might like.
