This morning President Bush met with Jose Manuel Barroso, President of the Commission of the European Communities in the Oval Office at the White House.

This afternoon, the President met with Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff, Cabinet Members and Legislators in the East Room of the White House to sign the Homeland Security Appropriations Act for 2006, which increases border security, and provides more detention facilities and speedier removal of illegal immigrants.

The White House website has provided a Fact Sheet with the details of the Appropriations Act.

Enjoy your trip to Sanity Island on the Daily Dose!!!

Psalm 27

    1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
         Whom shall I fear?
         The LORD is the strength of my life;
         Of whom shall I be afraid?
    2 When the wicked came against me
         To eat up my flesh,
         My enemies and foes,
         They stumbled and fell.
    3 Though an army may encamp against me,
         My heart shall not fear;
         Though war may rise against me,
         In this I will be confident.
         
    4 One thing I have desired of the LORD,
         That will I seek:
         That I may dwell in the house of the LORD
         All the days of my life,
         To behold the beauty of the LORD,
         And to inquire in His temple.
    5 For in the time of trouble
         He shall hide me in His pavilion;
         In the secret place of His tabernacle
         He shall hide me;
         He shall set me high upon a rock.
         
    6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me;
         Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
         I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
         
    7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice!
         Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
    8 When You said, "Seek My face,"
         My heart said to You, "Your face, LORD, I will seek."
    9 Do not hide Your face from me;
         Do not turn Your servant away in anger;
         You have been my help;
         Do not leave me nor forsake me,
         O God of my salvation.
    10 When my father and my mother forsake me,
         Then the LORD will take care of me.
         
    11 Teach me Your way, O LORD,
         And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.
    12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries;
         For false witnesses have risen against me,
         And such as breathe out violence.
    13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
         That I would see the goodness of the LORD
         In the land of the living.
         
    14 Wait on the LORD;
         Be of good courage,
         And He shall strengthen your heart;
         Wait, I say, on the LORD!

Bush, like Reagan, ignore the carping from the left, though Reagan did a better job of making fun of the left :-)

In my best Reagan voice...... "There they go again" was his standard reply when they launched ridiculous attacks against him.... I wish GWB would do the same

Late, late to the party....

I have been fighting mighty battles in the threads over yonder...alas, I doubt that I scored many "hits"...

but, I was fighting the good fight for My President.

How are you tonight?

I wish that Fitzgerald would come out already and get this stupid investigation thingy over with...

When it gets to the point that the only thing the gossipmongers have to do is speculate that Cheney will resign...they have TOO much time to make things up.

Who has been lying from day one?

Answer = Joe Wilson, he lied to the 9/11 Commission, the Senate, The Public in his Op Ed, and most likely Fitzgerald. The real story about this whole deal is the rogue element in the CIA that orchestrated the trip to Niger by Joe Wilson with every intent to discredit the President of the United States by some left wing Ambassador who had n o business involved in such a sensitive assignment that could be the difference between going to war or not.

The MSM media has refused to take a serious look at what really stinks about this whole deal, and the SKUNK is Joe Wilson and the former Valerie Plame

IMHO Laura Bush is the most beautiful First Lady ever to grace the White House. She is Class from head to foot, and as a male and somebody near her age, I find her very attractive.

IMHO she has it all, she is an Alpha Woman, :-)..... She Married well, She is her own woman, she's not afraid to speak her mind, and she does it all with class and dignity.... not to mention she is very attractive

Amen to your comments.

I, too, love Reagan, but since he is gone, the temptation to idolize him and ignore any shortcomings is great.

I love GWB more. He's had more to deal with and has done it superbly.
