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.

Bush mentioned they have something in common, teenage daughters!

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!

Ya know, I always kinda liked them there Ruskis....

Bush, calling Putin at one point by his first name, Vladimir, said that the more he got to know the Russian leader, "the more I get to see his heart and soul, the more I know we can work together in a positive way."

He joked that he had invited Putin to come back in August, the season of dusty and searing heat here. Bush recounted Putin's wiseacre reply: "Fine, and maybe you'd like to go to Siberia in the winter."

[debg]

Wonderful! Am truly enjoying this broadcast.

[BunnySlippers]

Can anybody understand what they are laughing about? A transcript. Anyone? Anyone?

[spectre]

Vlad and George are two handsome looking guys....I'll bet the Russians are as proud of his performance today as we are of GW's...God Bless Them Both.

I love how the national press was ignored and the people of a small town got to chat w/the Presidents. :) awesome.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Fox News described the Crawford high school session as, "possibly the last nail in the coffin of the Cold War".

Good journalism.

[cynicom]

bert...The Russians have oil for sale, this bugs OPEC. Also you know the Chinese are getting their underwear in a bind seing this go on. Let the good times roll.

[RedwM]

It's soooo nice not to feel like smashing the tv when our president comes on.

[Cinnamon Girl]

What a great day it is and how refreshing to have President Bush and Putin talking and joking together in Texas. Long past are the dismal days of Clintoon overlooking international crises in favor of his personal needs.

Thank G-d for President Bush.

We've come a long way from my 4th grade days when we were hustled out into the corridor at least once a week and practiced facing the wall so the flash of a Soviet nuke wouldn't blind us should we be attacked.
