I cannot get the tears out of my eyes.
This is the one thing the Dems... okay, the two things the Dems simply cannot produce: class, and genuineness. President Bush has them in spades.
I am ideologically to W's right on many things, but I thank God again and again that he is in that office, not his past opponent, and if God is good to us again, not his present opponent.

Why hasn't this picture made the news? Oh, I remember; we have to save room for pictures of the prisoner abuse in Iraq. It's a shame that a few idiots and that diesel dyke reservist might cost President Bush his reelection.

I have a meeting to go to in 10 minutes, and I'm sitting here with tears rolling down my face. God bless our President.
To: The Mayor
One can only imagine how grandstanding and shamefully self-centered a certain President CLINTON would have handled this same thing.

I'm really touched. NOthing like shedding a few tears to start the day. Bush is genuine here. Unlike Clinton, he DOES feel her pain - it's on his face and shown in his gentle and loving embrace.

WOW - I just read this thread. My mom and dad live 8 miles from Lebanon, Oh. and watched the coverage live. I've been to the Golden Lamb a couple of times - years and years ago.
I grew up in Mason, Ohio (where do you think I got my freeper name?) and went to Mason High School (graduated in '75) - just like the girl in the story does.
Very moving - God Bless this girl and her family and God Bless Pres. Bush.

If it had been Bill Clinton, he would have been trying to "feel her up".

Thank you so much for the post. Very touching.
To: BlueLancer
Wow, everytime I have any doubts about this man something like this comes along and confirms what an honorable and decent man he truly is. I make my living reading people's faces and judging their honesty and I have never seen a polititician as genuine and real as our current President. I shudder to think of how our previous president would have handled this situation. After exploiting the girl and her family for a photo op he would have probably told her how much he feels her pain and tried to grope her. Of course it sounds like she has a great father who would probably never let Clinton within fifty feet of his daughter. God Bless George W. Bush. Now I've got to wipe the tears from my eyes and get to work.
