A Month in the life of George W. Bush (News and photos) November 2009
www.georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/ ^ | 1st November 2009 | Snugs

November and winter is now upon us and it is almost frightening to realise it is almost a year ago that the election was held that made us realise that the previous 8 years of President George W Bush time as President was drawing to an end.

Even though it has been about 9 months since George W Bush left office for many it seems another age so much seems to have changed and many things we hold dear now seem to mean nothing.

We miss the class and character that George W Bush, his wife and of course his father and mother portrayed to the American nation and the world.

I hope the following photos will help us remember time of maybe great sadness and challenge for the nation but also a feeling that there was somebody at the helm that was strong, confident and above all put his love for his country and fellow men first and always did and said what he believed to be the right thing to do.

Enjoy your visit to Sanity Island

Don't remember his name.

BUT I WANT A TRANSCRIPT OF THIS SPEECH.

President Bush is going to fight for liberty throughout the world, as Obama seeks to thwart it.

Praise God that President Bush's work for freedom and faith is going to continue.

Good for Fox. They carried all of President Bush’s talk...and thank you for the link so I can watch Laura online!

It feels so good to see and hear them.

I just said the same thing ... he’ going to be
a DIRECT and public counter to Obama’s thuggish
socialism and Orwellian control over our economy,
health, healthcare and freedoms.

WOO HOO! God bless him and Laura!

Every event and initiative will be publicized,
and he will carry gravitas and credibility
with him wherever he goes around the world to
speak about the accomplishments at the Institute,
which will garner MORE public awareness and keep
the beacons of freedom and our free market system
ever in the spotlight, and acting to subdue the
lib socialist propaganda.

It’s gonna be awesome !!

Amen! It's gonna be AWESOME!

And I freely admit that I wept when he wept about how much he loves America. It is SO clear to anyone with eyes and ears, and hearts!

OH, to have this President in the White House again!

You know, we gave a contribution when he first asked for them (so got an invitation to this event), but I don't remember if that makes me a Charter Member.

Do you think there's any way to find out from the website?

(Feeling kinda DUMB here. :)

Many of us share this sentiment quoted by an SMU journalism student in the auditorium:
Women behind me say "miss seeing my pres. on tv instead of that communist... Never used my mute button so much in my life."

Here's coverage of the event in SMU's Daily Mustang:

Amen!

I was driving to the airport this morning listening to the radio. During a commercial I switched to Fox News and BHO was giving a speech---I quickly changed to what I had been listening to--and listened to the commercials!

I'm guessing at least 3 mil, dmd25. ;)

Heading for Minnesota and a wedding tomorrow (no one in the family!).

I'll see y'all late Sunday or Monday morning.

DrDeb, I CANNOT wait to read your full report! (I have no Internet access when I leave home).

God bless our dear President Bush and his lovely lady Laura!
