Vladimir really knows how to go to Texas. Black jeans and silver buckle set.

Eat your heart out Trent Lott

That did look pretty cool. But I wanna see how he looks when Mr. Ex-KGB Dude get ahold of a jalapeno - or is that when a jalapeno gets ahold of HIM...

I loved seeing W. driving the pickup truck with Putin sitting beside him.
The look on W's face was fabulous. He looked happy and contented.

[Sender]

I think it's great! I look forward to seeing W fishing at Putin's dacha in the near future. Maybe even tossing back a vodka or two if the demo-papparazzi aren't looking ;)

Clinton hitched his failed wagon to Arafat and Barak with NOTHING to show for it but more violence. Barak is now out and Bush isn't interested in any Arafat "photo ops".

GW Bush in his first 10 months has done more to improve our foreign relations than Clinton did in 8 years. It's nice to see adult leadership in the White House.

Rush is broadcasting part of the conference with the school kids in Crawford, TX. Sounds like they ALL are having a great time.

When they said they would take questions from the students, Putin said, "No math questions please." Then Dubya said, "Yeah, no math questions. Especially fuzzy math!"

[EggsAckley]

fuzzy math: LOL! This press conference is making
me feel better than I have in weeks. ;o)

This is a great lovefest. Bush is doing extremely well and I can see his popularity in the polls continuing...I love his down home folksy approach.

[EggsAckley]

The third picture, that's the one. Note their expressions.
Beautiful!

[BlueHorseShoe]

It does warm one's heart, doesn't it? ;^D

For reasons I don't understand, Vlad reminds me of the Yul Brenar character in the Magnificant 7.

[McGruff]

Bush mentioned they have something in common, teenage daughters!

[Aquamarine]

The Dukes of Crawford

[Hostage]

President "Poot-ann" I just love Texas.

Putin responding to treatment of women by Taliban, then to women's rights in general, then:

what we don't want is for women to become men!

I'm lovin it!

[DinkyDau]
