President Bush returned to business as usual today as he met with his national security team regarding the war on terrorism. He also visited the FEMA offices and thanked the workers for all of their hard work over the past few weeks. Enjoy your daily dose of Dubya!

[I'm ALL Right!]

I don't thank you often enough for your hard work every day. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I don't post much, but I do enjoy this thread very much.

This photo is of a B52 entitled,
"The Terrorist have won the toss and have elected to receive."

You guys, I'm sorry, I don't really know how to make a link out of this.
I'll work on it later, for now, this should be the right addess.

Thanks, MJY1288. I'm new at this and really I'm out of my league. Sorry about that.

[MJY1288]

Yes ....The coin has been tossed and the fate of the terrorist has been decided

Is it just me (or my monitor?) or does our dear President look pale and tired. But then, perhaps we all look this way these days . . . .

LOL! I had just finished saying that I thought he looked happier and more rested up today!

(Maybe it's my monitor that's distorting the pictures or maybe it's just that I want so much for President Bush to feel rested and happy!)

No apoligy neccessary, I just learned how to post picyures and links in HTML just a few weeks ago, I have been spoiled by "FrontPage 2000" :-)

[MJY1288]

"picyures"...Now, if I could just learn to spell :-)

That's a great article. I felt all through the election mess that Bush had this calm assurance that it was all in God's hands,
and that he was certain of the outcome. He was at peace. I really believe he was put here for this time in history.
As Michael Medved would say, "God's Hand in America".

I received this in a FReep e-mail from someone who is in the military. This FReeper follows a policy of NOT posting anything about the President, wheter it be good or bad. But this person did not tell me I couldn't post it.

As you may know, the President and Mrs. Bush visited the Washington Burn Center on Friday 14 September. Among those they visited was LTC Brian Birdwell, the XO to Ms. Menig, who was badly burned. Mrs. Bush went into Brian's room, spoke to him for about a minute, all the time as if they had been life-long acquaintances. She then turned to Brian's wife Mel, who at this time had been at the hospital for probably 2 1/2 days, and apparently according to Mel herself, was dirty, grimy and had blood on her shirt. Mrs. Bush hugged Mel for what Mel said seemed like an eternity, just as if Mel were one of her closest family members. Mrs. Bush then told Brian and Mel that there was "someone" there to see him. The President then walked in, stood by Brian's bedside, asked Brian how he was doing, told him that he was very proud of them both and that they were his heroes. The President then saluted Brian. Now, at this point in time, Brian is bandaged up pretty well. His hands are burned very badly as well as the back of him from the head down. His movements were very restricted. Upon seeing the President saluting him, Brian began to slowly return the salute, taking, from the accounts so far, about 15-20 seconds to get his hand up to his head. During all of this, 15-20 seconds, President Bush never moved, never dropped his salute. The President dropped his salute only when Brian was finished with his, and then gave Mel a huge hug for what also probably seemed like an eternity.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for pinging me so regularly. I love all of the pictures and appreciate the time and talent it takes to get this thread up every day.

#11 - I'm so glad the grown-ups are in charge!

You're making me laugh. I left the s off of terrorists too. Oh well.

If you have any tips on posting links in HTML, I'm open.

What a great and wonderful testimony of the wonderful President we now have. And what a true soldier this man is, and what an honor to have the President tell you that you are HIS hero. Gosh this guy along with President Bush is what this country is truly about. Thank you for sharing that story.

The President has said he thinks God called him for this mission to win the war against terrorism. I know for a fact that in 1994 when he won the governorship here in Texas, he told his mother that he believed God wanted him to be president. A mutual friend of ours and the Bush's was in the room when he said this. The friend said GWB had tears in his eyes when he said it. This friend, Lonnie A. "Bo" Pilgrim, is Chairman of the Board of Pilgrim's Pride (the 2nd largest poultry producer in the world/chx on the NY Stock Exchange. He lives in a mansion about 5 miles from my house and my husband serves on the board of directors of his banks in this area. We were invited to a fundraiser at his home in 1994 for GWB, but for some reason we couldn't attend. That just makes me sick that I didn't get to meet our future president. How was I to know??? By the way, my husband went to Austin on that night in November 1994 to help celebrate GWB's victory. I watched it all on TV because I stayed home with the kids. That's the breaks. I really didn't mind though.

I do believe that President Bush is the right person to be leading us through these difficult times. Thanks for sharing this!

Did I leave those darn italics on?

Fixed, I hope!
