The President spent the weekend at Camp David returning to the White House on Sunday, on Saturday he underwent a colonoscopy where 5 benign polyps were removed. There were no public events today but the President did issue a statement expressing sadness at the death of the ex King of Afganistan.
Today Secretary of Defense Robert Gates met with Columbia Defense Minister Juan Miguel at the Pentagon.

PRESIDENT BUSH: FAIR AND BALANCED
Monday, July 23, 2007
By Neil Cavuto
There’s nothing as refreshing as being with fellow journalists to know just how awful things are in the world — especially when the topic of conversation turns to President Bush.
One after another blasted him:
For the war: a disaster.
For the economy: uneven.
Even for the markets: undeserving.
One reporter even said — and I quote — “the guy’s just stupid.”
When it was my turn to speak, I said, “Well, he’s president of the United States and you’re not, so end of story.”
But that was not the end of the story, because they turned their criticism to me.
How could I be dumb enough to see any virtue in this guy?
Because I’m dumb enough, I said, to realize we haven’t been attacked since 9/11.
I’m dumb enough to see more people liberated under this president than any president.
And I’m dumb enough to see an economy apparently the envy of the world, attracting a lot of money pretty much from all over the world.
It is ironic that journalists who pride themselves on their impartiality can be so partial in their hatred — forgetting that polls are fleeting, taking lasting stands are not.
For good or ill, it took guts for this president to say Social Security was broken and needed fixing. It took zero guts to refuse to admit he was right.
History will prove that when this country’s chips were down, this president gathered our courage up.
I suspect history will honor that courage, even if a bunch of condescending, second-guessing, weasels-of-the-moment reporters do not.
They won’t give you that side of the story. I only thought it fair and balanced that I do.

FROM GATEWAY PUNDIT:
It’s interesting how democrats and their liberal media assume that just because they don’t like Bush or like the fact that he freed 50 million people from brutal dictators, that this makes him impeachable or the worst ever. It just doesn’t matter what the facts are against their deranged accusations.
President George W. Bush:
* Led the country out of the 9-11 attacks
* Lifted the country out of the Clinton Recession
* Has grown the economy for 22 straight quarters
* Has kept unemployment at historic lows
* Has lifted the stock market to record levels
* Has lifted over 50 million people out of bondage from two of the most brutal regimes in history
* Kept the country free from continuous devastating terror attacks unlike the previous administration
* Fought a successful 5 year War on Terror losing less soldiers in battle than the previous administration did in peacetime!

Pix of the girls are great. Don’t see that many of them, They are not off limits at this point but the press doesn’t seem to care or report on them
