On Sunday, Mountaineers gathered at the West Virginia University Mountainlair Ballroom to honor the first West Virginia National Guardsman to die in the line of duty since World War II.

President Bush rocked the crowd in a visit to West Virginia today, the fifth time in two years he has travelled to the Mountain State. Emphasizing the role our small, normally Dem. voting state played in electing him, he visited two sites, the Air National Guard base at Yeager Airport, and nearby Walker Machinery (heavy construction equipment). The message had the air of a campaign speech, with Pres. Bush very animated, forceful, AND funny. He highlighted the tax cut package passed by the House, and teased the Democrats about their puzzling economic theory that says taking away their tax cut ...

Just completed, President Bush warmly welcomed Santa Claus to the National Christmas Tree lighting. Hear that, Kensington? There were some great shots of the First Lady singing along with "Have Yourselves a Merry Little Christmas"; she wiped a genuine tear off her cheek after that song. It was truly touching and such a sharp contrast to the sight of Hilary's scowls during the WTC ceremony. Remember Hilary's "condom Christmas tree"? I am ever thankful for George W. bush and a real lady, our First Lady, laura Bush.
