A Year in the Life of President Bush (a lot of photos): Part 2 (April - June 2008)
www.whitehouse.gov | 10th January 2008 | Snugs

Posted on 01/10/2009 1:29:26 AM PST by snugs

This is the second part of the 2008 review and as was true for part one the following photos may not necessarily be the best photos or the most important but they are chosen because they appeal to me and hopefully to you as well. It maybe because of the content, the expression on the face(s) or just an unusual photo.

As I explained there are so many photos I have split this thread into 4 the first one will be January - March, this one the the second one April - June, the third July - September and the fourth October - December 2008.

I am aiming to put the other 2 up before the 20th January 2009.

As with the normal Day in the Life Thread I would request that photos are not posted until the all clear so that we have a chronology series of photos.

Enjoy your bonus visit to Sanity Island
