QUOTE OF THE DAY
President Bush Condemns Ongoing Actions of the Burmese Regime
I strongly condemn the ongoing actions of the Burmese regime in arresting, harassing, and assaulting pro-democracy activists for organizing or participating in peaceful demonstrations. These activists were voicing concerns about recent dramatic increases in the price of fuel, and their concerns should be listened to by the regime rather than silenced through force.
The Burmese regime should heed the international calls to release these activists immediately and stop its intimidation of those Burmese citizens who are promoting democracy and human rights. I also call on the regime to release all political prisoners, including Aung San Suu Kyi, and to lift restrictions on humanitarian organizations that seek to help the people of Burma.

The next one is rather topical as this was a puppy that was bred from a dog saved from Hurricane Katrina and this particular puppy was adopted by one of the White House staff
