A Day in the Life of President Bush (photos): 12/2/03
yahoo.com, whitehouse.gov | 12/2/03

Posted on 12/02/2003 6:03:13 PM PST by mtngrl@vrwc

Today President George W. Bush signed the adoption promotion act of 2003 in the Roosevelt Room of the White House, which is aimed at moving more older children out of foster care and into permanent homes. More than a dozen children attended the adoption bill signing with their adoptive parents.

Later in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, President Bush attended a campaign fundraiser.

Also today, President George W. Bush made remarks alongside the best drivers of the 2003 Nascar season and their cars on the South Lawn of the White House. Bush honored the best drivers of the 2003 season, including Matt Kenseth, who won the 2003 Winston Cup series.

My little newsmaker is a bit younger than your handsome young man, but I still wanted to let y'all know that the MHABGSITW made the front page of the local paper on Monday! (He's the one in the front row whose tie is NOT covering his face.) ;)


Caption:
Staff photo/Brad Avery
Twelfth Annual Walking Christmas Concert make the trek Sunday evening from the Wapakoneta Fire Department to St. Paul's United Church of Christ after the lighting of the Community Christmas [tree]. One youngster in the St. Paul's Cherub Choir apparently got a touch of stage fright, using his festive tie to hide from a photographer during the group's performance.

(The grammar is theirs; I did insert an omitted word.) ;)

Good news!

Just saw on the FOX news crawl that the Pentagon will shortly begin paying for the soldiers on R&R from Iraq to get ALL THE WAY HOME, not to just one of three airports in America (they were previously required to pay the airfare all the way home, prompting a HUGE outcry from other Dosers, and we MUST have made a difference!)

Time to get the kids to school--

When Bush was first running, I met him several times at the debates. He came off very personably. Then I saw him on television and he didn't "project" and I told my husband he couldn't win because he didn't have that television "Q" factor. (Boy was I wrong).
###

He was very stiff in his early TV appearances, but like you I had met him personally, and I knew that his plan was to win hearts and votes one at a time. He knew that he had to go around the media.

To everyone I met, from cashiers at check-out counters to family members to strangers in libraries or hospitals (where I was spending a lol of time in 2000), I said that he would make a great president and you will like him after you get to know him.

What's Eric doing in a Blackhawk?

Posing? ;o)

I actually don't know. They drop in once in a while, I think, and he thinks they're neat........cooler than the giant trucks and humvees he drives around in, I guess!

***The President always looks happy when he is around kids.
Don't forget the corollary; the kids always look happy when they're around this President.***

I'm sure the adoption bill was extra special to him because he and Laura were in the process of adopting when she became pregnant with the girls. I think one of his brothers and his wife adopted, too, from the same place GW and Laura were going to.

The left is losing their control over people

Yes, and they're doing exactly the opposite of what they need to do to get them back.

While President Bush is smiling with, and weeping for the troops, loving his country and its people, and being kind to everyone, they are acting like raving lunatics, filled with hate and lies.

Do they actually think they'll attract the American people with this nonsense?? Unbelieveably stupid!

***I heard yesterday, or maybe Sunday, that one of the Clinton fundraisers was to be pleading guilty soon to campaign fraud. Then there was something about the Denise/Marc Rich pardon and campaign donations. ***

I heard that too. But where are the constant news flashes? Where are the never ending updates? Where are the "experts" commenting on every single little tiny detail of it????
