What do you think about the lady in the pink coat on post #196? HLL?

[hole_n_one]

It is, but then I was told that it wasn't HLL, so I dumped that one and put up another in it's place and was told that it's not her either.

I'm sure she'll let us know if she's in any of these pics.

[nopardons]

NO!

[BigWaveBetty]

Thank you hole_in_one!

Q I'm really concerned about you sharing with America how you have chosen to make sure that African Americans, Hispanics, women, these coalitions, how you are putting them to the task and getting involved with your election. Can you talk about that?

THE PRESIDENT: Sure, I will. First thing, there's a lot of rhetoric in politics, and sometimes empty, sometimes not. I hope people judge me on the decisions I've made.

In terms of African Americans, I've empowered many African Americans to positions of prime responsibility. I want you to think about -- envision this: Sitting down with foreign leaders, and if it's a small delegation, I'll have my Secretary of State and my National Security Advisor. And guess -- they are great Americans who happen to be African American. (Applause.)

The Secretary of Education is African American. My lawyer is a Latino. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development is an African American. In other words, what I'm saying is that, I brought people from all walks of life into my government for a reason. These are competent, really good people. And they bring diversity into our government, which is important.

Not only have I listened to strong women like Laura, I have done so with people like Karen Hughes, Condi Rice, Harriet Miers, Domestic Policy Advisor Margaret Spellings. I mean, I can go down the list. I am proud of the diversity that I brought into government. I think it's important. It makes me a better President when I have people from different walks of life to listen to. (Applause.)

I assume you are already aware of this, Tonk, but...for the record:

(CNSNews.com) - Hundreds of former commanders and military colleagues of presumptive Democratic nominee John Kerry are set to declare in a signed letter that he is "unfit to be commander-in-chief." They will do so at a press conference in Washington on Tuesday. "What is going to happen on Tuesday is an event that is really historical in dimension," John O'Neill, a Vietnam veteran who served in the Navy as a PCF (Patrol Craft Fast) boat commander, told CNSNews.com. The event, which is expected to draw about 25 of the letter-signers, is being organized by a newly formed group called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

"We have 19 of 23 officers who served with [Kerry]. We have every commanding officer he ever had in Vietnam. They all signed a letter that says he is unfit to be commander-in-chief," O'Neill said.
