The month of September 2005 was a very busy month for President Bush after Katrina came on land at the Gulf coast and damaged the area. We see President Bush and First Lady Laura visiting New Orleans and other affected areas in Louisiana and Mississippi to comfort the victims of the hurricane and bring aid
The country lost Chief Justice William Renquist who passed away on September 3, 2005
President Bush nominated Judge Roberts to become the next Chief Supreme Court Justice. On September 29th Justice Roberts was sworn in as the 20th? Supreme Court Chief Justice.
President Bush remembered 9/11 heroes at a Medal of Valor ceremony. He also met with several foreign leaders and addressed the Useless Nations
For the quote of the month I have chosen President Bush’s Remarks which he gave at the National Day of Prayer and Remembrance Service on September 16, 2005

Enjoy your visit to Sanity Island

I'm sorry that I missed it. President Bush has always admired him....and OUR president is the kind of man who isn't ashamed to show his love of his friends, family and country. He has a heart as big as....well....Texas!

Does Greta get replayed during the night? Maybe you could DVR it and watch it tomorrow.

My husband and I were just discussing that the sparkle in these eyes can only come from the Lord....

[luvie]

Good idea! I’ll have hubby set that up. I had thought that
the show was from yesterday...this is great! Thanks!

Okay, dearest ohioWfan. You know me too well.
I had tears, too. So there. Even Dr.O wiped his eyes.
He told me to stay up to TIVO the segment on the replay.
Ninety-two years old and ready to join our Lord and Savior.
God Bless him and his family, and all who love Reverend Billy Graham. He's still preaching God's word.

Thanks, Merlinator!

You read my mind Ohiowfan! That has to be one of my favorites of him period solo!

[ohioWfan]

It’s only the first 25 minutes, but you have to see it!

[ohioWfan]

Amen, onyx! God bless him for his faithfulness over all these years!

(He's ready to be with his dear Ruth again too! Sweet, sweet man of God....)

[ohioWfan]

I think those of us who love the Lord can just sense where that sparkle comes from. That is a great photo.

We were SO blessed to have him lead us for eight years. So very blessed!

[onyx]

Yes, he’s ready to join his Ruth in Heaven, and he shall, on God’s clock, but he knows that, too. It was such a special segment, I am going to stay up to TIVO it myself.

Methinks Rev. Graham respects our President too.....

These photos are just so wonderful! They have made my day!

[ohioWfan]

I'm going to watch it again tomorrow, for sure.

Maybe then my eyes won't be so blurry......

[onyx]

Ditto! The photos are wonderful. Be sure to bookmark this thread!

What incredible photos jlyspio! I didn’t know about this interview. Hopefully a link to it will appear somewhere— How Blessed are we to have both these incredible men living during our lifetimes and to see them and hear them speak.

Thank you for this very poignant photo, dmd25. I think President Bush may be giving thanks to God that he is able to spend this time with Reverend Graham and how honored he and Laura are to have this very special moment.

Merry Christmas!

I knew you would love it, ohio! :)

After I posted that I wondered if you all would agree with my assessment (after all—we have looked at thousands of GWB photos!). I am glad that you did.
