An Evening with Bibi

LOL! Yeah, I'm a little bit of a Bush supporter!

But I always add that the reason that I respect him, is that he has earned my respect. I knew very little about him before the Republican primaries, but the more I heard and the more I saw, the more impressed I became with the genuineness of this man. Your story about him is one more piece of evidence that he is who he says he is! Thanks!

[ohioWfan]

Thank you all! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was quite an evening!

[ohioWfan]

You are all welcome. Thanks for reading it!

[Victoria Delsoul]

Thanks so much for telling us about it. I really enjoyed your review.

[Molly Pitcher]

Sure enjoyed it through your eyes, ohio! Excellent!

[dutchess]

Thanks for a GREAT REPORT. I have so much respect for Bibi...it still disgusts me how Clinton and gang sabatoged his administration.

BTW, just read in the Dispach that its definate that GW will be the OSU commencement speaker...and he's here Friday too. Had I won last nights lottery you bet I would pay the high price ticket to see him....sigh....

[ohioWfan]

Thanks, Molly! I've been waiting to see what you thought!

[ohioWfan]

GW will be the OSU commencement speaker...and he's here Friday too

Life is just not fair, is it? LOL! I have a degree from OSU! Why was I not invited??

On top of it all, I'm not even going to be in the state on Friday! Bummerrrr!!!

[ohioWfan]

Also, how is our beloved home state of Ohio?? I really miss the Midwest. Virginia is beautiful and lovely, but it's not the same as Ohio for me!

I just realized that I had never answered your question, MoJo!

Ohio is beautiful......at least today! The leaves are not completely filled in, but the fresh new green of an Ohio May is unsurpassed in beauty, IMO. We've had a very cold spring, but maybe the worst is over. Today is absolutely gorgeous!

[ohioWfan]

Correction.......I just read in yesterday's paper that there were more than 700 people there! Better yet!!

(I never was very good at estimation!)

[ohioWfan]

Have you ever been a reporter???

Only if you count writing an article on the Dave Clark Five for my Jr. High newspaper, and a couple of articles for my college year book! LOL!

Thanks to both of you for such kind words! You both know how happy I was to hear about his strong support for President Bush! I was even happier to read our local newspaper article say that Netanyahu "praised President George W. Bush for his handling of the battle against terrorists.." Now I'm sure I wasn't hearing things! LOL!

[kayak]

What a fantastic report on what seems to have been a grand evening!!!

Thank you for taking such good notes and writing up this wonderful report that makes us feel as if we were there. And congratulations to Mr. fan on getting his question asked!

[ohioWfan]

I told you they were copious!!

I might have written more, but I had to look up some of the time!
(I kept writing off the page and on to my skirt when I looked up at Bibi!)

[kayak]

Can we help with the dry cleaning bill ..... or buy you a new skirt ..... since you made that sacrifice for us? ... :-)

If I ever have the opportunity to attend a function such as that, I'll have to take a tape recorder ..... I would never be able to listen and write such good notes at the same time ..... I'm very impressed!

[ohioWfan]

Actually, I thought about a tape recorder, but I figured it might not get past the security check. They went through my pockets and my purse!

I'll have to admit that it was funny seeing my dirty tissues and gum wrappers in that little plastic container! If I ever go to one of these again, I'll have to remember to empty my pockets at home!

btw, thanks for the dry cleaning offer, but we've got it covered! :o)

[Miss Marple]

Sorry I am here late. I am a little bit under the weather.

Thanks so much for this report. I am so sick of hhearing the Bush-bashers spout that President Bush doesn't support Israel! Obviously, he does, and Netenyahu says so.

Thanks again!

[ohioWfan]

I'm glad you got here, Miss Marple! And I hope you're feeling better soon, too.

It was abundantly clear that Netanyahu has a great deal of respect for the President. There wasn't even a hint of reservation about that.

He definitely doesn't think that Arafat can be negotiated with, but then, I don't think that President Bush does either. There are larger things afoot here, and from the sounds of Condi today, there may be some interesting things happening soon.

Thanks for reading this. I wish you and Mr. Marple could have been there with us!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

What a wonderful Freep report! Thank you, ohioWfan.

Netanyahu listed 6 main ‘carriers’……Iran, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Afghanistan, and Arafatistan.

Our fight against militant Islamic terrorism is more complex than any battle in history, because, like the other leftist groups, the terrorists do not respect national sovereignty....and, for the first time in history, serious nutcases working in concert have the means to wipe out millions. They train in over 60 countries and today's technology allows instant communication between cells...one leader can call for volunteers, another can provide arms and transportation, another financing. They are able to send their brainwashed minions anywhere on command, and are working diligently on all forms of weapons of mass-destruction.

Bush, Conde, Rumsfeld, etc., are working to stop the leaders around the world before MILLIONS are killed by one nut following orders. We will never abandon our support for Israel....and I know that every Arab nation has been told where we stand, and how we'd respond if they attacked Israel. Forget the press accounts...they're working to stir up trouble.

Ping for Israel, and the international efforts to stop widespread genocide of Christians, Jews and other non-Muslims in Islamist nations.

THANK YOU for this. Superb reporting.
