Welcome to Sanity Island, where only adults are allowed.

President Bush had a busy day today.

He met with General Petraeus in the Oval Office to discuss the War in Iraq.

He later participated in a Meeting on Medicare Part D in the Roosevelt Room.

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."

President Bush offered his condolences to the Yeltsin family and Russian people over the passing of Boris Yeltsin.

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.

I want everyone to know how much I cherish my dear friends on this thread.

Likewise :) This thread and everyone that participates on it have been a personal blessing to me.

Seeing the insanity on some of the other threads makes me appreciate that even more.

I watched the video on our local news site....Bush was pretty funny....sadly noted I do not see Ashley Manning anywhere. She was not in the Saturday Night Live audience and I am not seeing her @ the White House....I hope all is well for them.
