The month of September 2005 was a very busy month for President Bush after Katrina came on land at the Gulf coast and damaged the area. We see President Bush and First Lady Laura visiting New Orleans and other affected areas in Louisiana and Mississippi to comfort the victims of the hurricane and bring aid
The country lost Chief Justice William Renquist who passed away on September 3, 2005
President Bush nominated Judge Roberts to become the next Chief Supreme Court Justice. On September 29th Justice Roberts was sworn in as the 20th? Supreme Court Chief Justice.
President Bush remembered 9/11 heroes at a Medal of Valor ceremony. He also met with several foreign leaders and addressed the Useless Nations
For the quote of the month I have chosen President Bush’s Remarks which he gave at the National Day of Prayer and Remembrance Service on September 16, 2005
Thanks again, patty, for your work to get us these fine photos!
That's because there has never been one. :)
My pleasure. It’s always a treat to discover new pics of W whenever possible. It’s like going on a treasure hunt and digging up a piece of gold or valuable jewelry!
They are like a breath of fresh air after the fetid air emanating out of DC these days! :)
Thank you for keeping us informed of OUR president’s efforts to make the world a better place!
THANK YOU so much for posting so many AWESOME photos of our President — the photos with Nancy Reagan are particularly poignant. [Our President just oozes class and character!]
Look at how much admiration she has for him. It shows in her face as she's looking at him.
THANKS, patty!
(Again! :)
Oh what lovely photos of President Bush and Nancy Reagan. Thanks so much for posting. May God grant eternal rest to President and Mrs. Ford. They served our nation well in very difficult times.

Thanks for the hat tip on the National Geographic schedule, and thanks for finding the new photos and sharing them with us. It’s been quite a while since I have seen any new photos with our beloved President and First Lady
Yes, he does, because he doesn't need to always make it about HIM.

President Bush looks back on 9/11
Yes, of course President Bush will be there to attend the 9/11 memorial ceremony. But I wish Obama wasn't invited to be there. All we can do is try very hard to ignore him and focus on our president instead!
Obama, Bush to Participate in 9/11 Anniversary Ceremony
July 29, 2011 11:57am | By Jill Colvin, DNAinfo Reporter/Producer
MANHATTAN — President Barack Obama will join former President George W. Bush at the name-reading ceremony commemorating the 10th Anniversary of the September 11 attacks, marking the first time a president has participated in the event.
Speaking on his weekly radio show, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said that both presidents will be reading poems to mark the solemn day.
"There are no speeches whatsoever," the mayor said. “This cannot be political. That’s why there’s a poem or a quote or something that each of the readers will read."
While both presidents have visited the site before, this is the first time either will participate in the ceremony, a spokeswoman for the mayor confirmed.
The highest-ranked White House officials to have participated in the official ceremony in the past have been Vice President Joseph Biden, who was there in 2009 and 2010 and Vice President Dick Cheney, who was there for the 2003 ceremony, the mayor's office said.
While the ceremony has always included the reading of the names of those who died at Ground Zero during the attack, the names of those who died at the Pentagon as well as in the plane crash in Shanksville, Pa., will also be recited for the first time this year.
There will be moments of silence to mark when the planes hit and when the towers crumbled, as well as to commemorate the two additional attacks.
The presidents will be joined by a select group of officials including governors Andrew Cuomo, Chris Christie of New Jersey and George Pataki, who was governor at the time of the attacks.
Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani will also participate, alongside Bloomberg.
“That’s it,” Bloomberg said.
"There’s an awful lot of people who would like to participate and you just can't do that."
In addition to the readings, the family members in attendance will be allowed to walk through the memorial plazas and look at their family members' names on the memorial wall.
The public will be allowed access the next day.
I must NOT forget this event!
2nd, I feel sorry for PRESIDENT BUSH to have to stand next to, or be anywhere near, the islam-n-chief bHo. HOW AWFUL FOR W!!!!
