PING

There are a lot of photos today so please be patient. Also, at the end of the day's photos, I'd like everyone to post a picture of the President that directly deals with his life in the past year as it relates to the war on terror. Please wait until I post THE END. Thank you.

He looks so tired and the weight of the world is on his shoulders. Pray for HIM.

Thanks, Rintense. President Bush was the Comforter in Chief today. So many were comforted by his presence. He must be emotionally drained. God Bless President Bush.

Today I was at a 9/11 remembrance ceremony and spoke to one of the nurses that took care of some of the Pentagon burn victims.

She talked about President Bush and Laura’s visit to the burn unit. She said his presence was unbelievably commanding and powerful, his compassion was immense. He spent a lot of time talking to the victims, later shook every staff members hand. She said ”and the whole time his eyes were filled with tears.”

God bless President Bush.

Real tears from a REAL PRESIDENT!

What an incredible day. President Bush was at his finest in each venue he attended today. His speech at the Pentagon was powerful, he was strong, his resolve unshaken in spite of all of the rhetoric against us attacking Iraq. He made his message clear there, and in his address to the nation. We are going to march on Iraq whether the RATS like it or not.
He was fabulous with the victims families taking time with each one, hugging, posing for pictures with them, and listening to their stories. He made me proud today, and even more thankful that he is our President.

What struck me the MOST about the CBS interview with President Bush today was that we found out about what happened when he was on Air Force One on 9/11. It was hair raising! The dems are still calling him a coward for not going back to the White House and he WAS ON HIS WAY BACK when they had to change course because they got word that an unknown plane was flying toward them. GOOSE BUMPS! We could have lost him that terrible day.

Also, USA Today's review of the interview said that Dubya cried and pounded his fist on the table. They made him sound like he was out of control. Not true! It was mentioned that shortly after 9/11 Dubya pounded the table at a Cabinet meeting; and he had tears in his eyes in the interview for a short time.

He was solid, in control, and very much the leader.

I draw strength from his tears. I know who keeps him when he's weak. Thanks rintense for the ping. Your tribute was awesome.

[Clara Lou]

I do thank God on a regular basis for the monumental difference between Geroge W. Bush and WJC. (That sounds so trite, but it's so profound.)

Such an emotional day...but thru' it all the strength and compassion of our President and First Lady shines...the admiration I have for these two wonderful people only grows. I will never forget the genuine concern and love that showed on their faces when they were talking to and comforting the family and friends of those who perished ... and later, the 60 Minute II piece was surprising and strong, I kept waiting for a "dig" at the president, but it never happened...Wow !
