A Year in the Life of President Bush (a lot of photos): Part 3 (July - September 2008)
www.whitehouse.gov/news www.yahoo.com/news | 17th January 2008 | Snugs

Posted on 01/17/2009 8:59:21 PM PST by snugs

This is the third part of the 2008 review and as was true for parts one and two the following photos may not necessarily be the best photos or the most important but they are chosen because they appeal to me and hopefully to you as well. It maybe because of the content, the expression on the face(s) or just an unusual photo.

As I explained there are so many photos I have split this thread into 4 the first one being January - March, the second April - June and this one the the third one July - September, the fourth final one will be October - December 2008 which will be posted Sunday afternoon/evening eastern time.

As with the normal Day in the Life Thread I would request that photos are not posted until the all clear so that we have a chronology series of photos.

Enjoy your bonus visit to Sanity Island
