Speech Bush Campaign Rally White House Travel, Domestic Trip Springfield, Missouri
Bush, George W., President, United States
Sure, lots of people would like flex time, but that is not up to the government to legislate. Not its purpose.
You know in general I would agree with this and in part still do. I am torn though because of the importance this may have in maintaining families. In my experience the less time kids are in day care and the more they are with parents the better they (and be extention society) is. Me an my wife have a "flex" schedule and we have almost no need for day care which is a huge bonus for our family. Of course some careers are more amenable than others.
That being said you raise a very valid and important point which needs to be considered. I guess I'm torn a bit.
I don't think that's Alan Jackson...
That may happen. Let's hope!
Trade ya. I work a few blocks from the White House in liberal D.C. for liberal lawyers.
Yes! Cheney is hot in that special mature, intelligent, "don't worry, you're safe with me" masculine way. Edward's is the kind of guy I expect to start talking about his shoes.
What? You didn't like Black-eyed Peas singing Yo Yo Yo Ya Ya Ya? ;o)
That's awful! Here's a (((HUG)))!
I know all the admonitions about overconfidence, but I agree with Hugh Hewitt ... the Prez will take 40 states November 2. Let's make it happen.
Isn't that Brooks and Dunn?
I noticed that also .. it was a little longer then he normally gives .. but it was good and he got a few good slaps in there
CSPAN switches to 9-11 Commission.
They are trying to get as much face-time as possible before they 'end' their tenure.
Could be George Straight or Alan Jackson.. either way I like the song!
I know, I heard a lot of that stuff the dims played and it was awful, imho.
I got a big boost from that. Bush really comes across as a very decent, optimistic guy. He is a definite keeper.
Appreciate your points Doc, but you and your wife probably chose your jobs with flex time being a high priority. That is the way it is supposed to work. Government should have no role in that process.
It is Brooks and Dunn
A Jackson is a closet socialist
Only in America lyrics
Sun comin' up over New York City.
School bus driver in a traffic jam.
Staring at the faces in her rear view mirror,
Looking at the promise of the promise land.
One kid dreams of fame and fortune.
One kid helps pay the rent.
One could end up going to prison
One just might be president
Chorus
Only in America!
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue!
Only in America!
Where we dream as big as we want to
Chorus
We all get a chance,
Everybody gets to dance,
Only in America!
Sun goin' down on an L.A freeway
Newly-weds in back of a limousine
A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything!
She came out here to be an actress
He was a singer in a band.
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been
Chorus
Only in America!
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue!
Only in America!
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance,
Everybody gets to dance,
Only in America!
Everybody gets to dance,
Only in America!
Sun goin' down on an L.A freeway
Newly-weds in back of a limousine
A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything!
She came out here to be an actress
He was a singer in a band.
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been
Chorus
Only in America!
Dreamin' in red, white, and blue!
Only in America!
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance,
Everybody gets to dance,
Only in America!
Repeat.
Oh my, you really need a (((HUG!)))
I use to work in a law firm ..
On my desk I had a sign that read "Common Sense Is Not So Common" :0)
