A Day in the Life of President Bush (photos): 7/28/03
7/28/03

Posted on 07/28/2003 4:42:51 PM PDT by mtngrl@vrwc

Today, President Bush went to Pittsburgh to make remarks at the National Urban League conference, a group that represents black Americans. He said the U.S. economy is showing fresh signs of improvement. He urged Congress to approve languishing legislation to help low-income Americans and those having a hard time finding work.

Then later he greeted Ben Curtis, winner of the 2003 British Open, in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. Curtis outlasted Tiger Woods and other champion golfers to win the tourney earlier this month.

Also today, President Bush signed the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act. The legislation is supposed to send a message to the regime of Burma that the regime's continued detention of Aung San Suu Kyi and continued oppression of its people is unacceptable and cannot be allowed to stand.

Thanks, Patricia. His name is Paul. And he has fought like a tiger to live, no matter how tough it got. I am SO proud of him.

If you didn't see Dennis Miller on Hannity & C?????? last Friday night, you can watch his rant at the following URL:

NOTE: If you aren't a FoxFan, you will need to register (it's free and painless!)!!

REQUEST: Could a DOSER with nimble fingers compile a transcript of Miller's rant and post it here?! The rant is an absolute CLASSIC relative to both the Hussein family and our AWESOME president!!

We were blessed to have had him for 100 years, and there will never be another to take his place. God Bless his family!

I know I'm being selfish, but I wish we could have him for another 100 years ..

God Bless Bob Hope .. he will be missed but he will never been forgotten

Ecclesiastes 3

1 To everything there is a season,
        A time for every purpose under heaven:

        2A time to be born,
           And a time to die;
        A time to plant,
           And a time to pluck what is planted;
        3A time to kill,
           And a time to heal;
        A time to break down,
           And a time to build up;
        4A time to weep,
           And a time to laugh;
        A time to mourn,
           And a time to dance;
        5A time to cast away stones,
           And a time to gather stones;
        A time to embrace,
           And a time to refrain from embracing;
        6A time to gain,
           And a time to lose;
        A time to keep,
           And a time to throw away;
        7A time to tear,
           And a time to sew;
        A time to keep silence,
           And a time to speak;
        8A time to love,
           And a time to hate;
        A time of war,
           And a time of peace.

9 What profit has the worker from that in which he labors? 10I have seen the God-given task with which the sons of men are to be occupied. 11He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.
12I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives, 13and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor--it is the gift of God.

Hi there and welcome. So glad you joined us. I would be hopelessly addicted to FR if I didn't have to squeeze in going to work everyday.

Can you believe that there is 'growing pressure in the Bush adminstration to have Condi Rice resign over the SOTU flap'- according to Fox and Friends this morning??? Whoever the Bush Admin. clowns are that have started this crap, well, they need to SHUT UP. Condi is one of the brightest stars in the Republican camp- and could potentially be the one to knock Hillary out of the Presidency. The Dems are rabid dogs looking for a bone- and these fools in the B.A. better zip it quick.
