Great pixes: The pix of the President with the little boys is TOO precious!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Gallup conducted a post-speech poll (June 7-8) and discovered the following:

Security Plan: 72% Approve 20% Disapprove

President's Approval Rating:
74% Approve [I wonder if the media will trumpet this number as much as they did the 70% number published BEFORE the speech? NOT! Nevertheless, it's still gratifying to know that 3 out of 4 citizens support the President! NOTE: This % increase had to have come from Dems and Indies which must drive the Dem political establishment/media (same entity!) absolutely crazy!!]
18% Disapprove [Given our incredibly fractious society, I find it absolutely incredible that the President's disapproval rating is STILL below 20%!!!! My biggest concern at the moment is the stock market/dollar -- if both continue to behave erratically it could undermine confidence in our economy; NOT good for the fall elections! However, I'm going to follow the President's lead and think optimistically -- just one of a million things that I love about him!]

General Aside:I have noticed lately that a number of BushBabes/Bucks are dealing with personal/family problems -- my prayers are with you all!! Yesterday, my husband and his family had to put their father into a special home for people suffering from Alzheimers -- it's been a TOUGH few days. My father-in-law was such a BRILLIANT attorney/community leader/husband/father/grandfather and to watch him mentally and physically deteriorate over the last several months has been a nightmare (I have such empathy for former President Reagan and Nancy)!
