A day in the life of President Bush (photos): 1/5/02
yahoo.com, whitehouse.gov | 1/5/02

Posted on 01/05/2002 5:10:49 PM PST by rintense

On what can be seen as firing a shot across the bow of partisan Democrats, President Bush sent a strong and clear message to Washington and the American people that the economy must not fall victim to the DC standard of gridlock. Bush made it clear in his town hall meeting in Ontario, California, that the economy is the biggest issue to solve in the next year, other than the continuing war on terror. The President tackled questions ranging from the war on terror, to the economy, education, and even fashion. Enjoy your daily dose of Dubya!

To my mind, this is a highly misguided post.

Mercy, you protest awkwardly.

I get most of my news about what our president does every day from rintense's wonderful, non-idolizing threads, which often leads me to other news sources on Bush. That is why? Because the network news, which is the only way I get moving picture accounts of Bush's work, refuse to devote much time to him. I greatly appreciate rintense's posts, the replies by others, and the extra info I pick up in the replies about where his speeches have been given, how to get to the audio links, etc. Even by surfing FR it is difficult to pick up on all the major events our president is involved in, but on this thread, which pulls news photos from news sources, one finds an excellent recap of President Bush's activities, which tells me a lot about his priorities, and often, how to be praying for him and for our country.

Thank you rintense. Great pics..

Listening to dubya yesterday made my heart swell with the knowledge that if the obstructionist demorats will get out of the way, dubya will do what is right for this country and it's citizens.

I saw some of the replay on C-SPAN last night. He was great. As my sister-in-law said, "he is just so real and genuine." Amen to that. This town hall type setting is definitely becoming W's forte. He draws from the energy in the crowd. I also saw DFU's comment and question. GRRRREAT!

I also personally love the dark maroon tie. Looks very classy and manly for some reason. Maybe it's the guy wearing it, eh?

It's so wonderful to see these photos every day. But also, I love the comments of everyone, their opinion of the President's speeches, etc. This is just a wonderful thread, all around!

he recognizes that he is an historic accident, and b/c he has brought true American values to the totally gratuitous opportunity he has been given.

ROFLMBO, LOL, teehee...........oh, excuse me..you didn't mean that as a joke??? Wow, it's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time, though. If I felt that way, I would no longer haunt this thread for information on what our President did yesterday and today, and what his plans are, what the effect has been on us, etc., etc., etc. Why are you bothering? I don't believe you'll affect any of us or our opinions.

Thanks, Rintense, for another excellent thread.

Perhaps you should visit more than one daily dose thread before you make outlandish accusations regarding the people who post this to this thread. Therefore, I only have one reply for you.

Re: Post #19... and their "historical accident comment"

This IMAGE is my FAVORITE on your great THREAD...showing the expression the above referenced deserves!

The AMERICAN People ELECTED the PRESIDENT They NEEDED!!!

He's a reflection of the country, and how we needed his uplifting, through his vision, moral goodness and leadership qualities.....after 8 years of scum clinton - we deserved HIM!

They're on your profile page. Go to the little drop down on the post page that says Destination, choose My Profile.

I think your post comes closer to making a useful point than others above think, but is still misguided. Like most common things, the praise of leaders by admirers can be good or bad. You have to look to the dynamics of it. Healthy leadership, and respect for leaders, is essential for solid organizations. Sick leadership is poison.

We've seen both sick and healthy leadership in the Oval Office these last few years. You tell me, Urbane_Guerilla, which is which -- I think you know, or if you don't, good riddance. But don't throw out the baby with the bath water. Don't condemn all leaders because some are big time Clymers, nor all praise of leaders, because some such praise is debasing.

As others have noted above, this daily thread also serves an essential purpose - getting out the news of what our President is up to. The major news media are very seriously biased, and alternative media, such as this thread, are a vital alternative. Indeed, this liberal media bias is perhaps an excellent example of the sicker forms of the leader and follower dynamic, as I mentioned in another post a few days ago.

At the top right hand corner of the "latest page" is a window which says "destination" - just press on the arrow and you will see a list of things. Press "My Profile". When you get there, it should still list your bookmarked files.

My question to John Robinson last night was, "where is the button to bookmark?? So far I haven't received an answer.

I prefer a dark maroon tie on our president above all of the other ones he wears, too. He looks spectacular in it! He looks manly because he is all man!

LOL! He was "singing show tunes." He pounded the podium and paced the stage, microphone in hand. He preached it. Did everything but tap dance. I loved it. He's hitting his stride.

YEEEEHAWWWWW!!

Hey, we've just endured 8 LOONNNNGGG years of being ashamed of our leader. Not just disliking his policies, but being ashamed of him--That's being embarrassed, humiliated, frustrated, and miserable.

So, EEXXXCCCCUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSEEEE us if we get a little enthusiastic about having an honorable COUPLE in the WH.

Bravo, rintense!

Saturday's town hall reminds me of two things: 1) When Rush Limbaugh says the Democrats haven't had a new idea in decades (why do they think this Pres. Bush is going to act exactly the same as his father? That makes no sense at all), and 2) When Pres. Bush said "We're facing something familiar, they're facing something new." Indeed.

Excellant response although I doubt that individual will understand. It is important for people to know the difference in the type of President they should admire. And after 8 years of Clinton, President Bush is heads and tails above him. He deserves or respect and admiration, he has earned it. Clinton never did.

See post #10. John is still working on the new software. This works just fine in the meantime.
