President Bush spoke at the new Library of Congress exhibit, "Churchill and the Great Republic." Open Feb. 5 through June 26, 2004, the exhibit marks Winston Churchill's contributions to democracy and his relationship with the United States. Winston Churchill III and his family attended. Text of remarks regarding Sir Winston, and the War on Terror.
Laura Bush spoke at St. Joseph's Hospital in Savannah, GA about The Heart Truth campaign. The First Lady visited with 20 of Savannah's heart disease survivors and called on Americans, especially women, to learn more about heart disease and ways to prevent it. She asked for a National wear red day to promote awareness [I think this is February 6.]

QUOTE OF THE DAY: (The whole speech is well worth reading.) In a decade of political exile during the 1930s, Churchill was dismissed as a nuisance and a crank. When the crisis he predicted arrived, nearly everyone knew that only one man could rescue Britain. The same trait that had made him an outcast eventually made him the leader of his country. Churchill possessed, in one writer's words, an "absolute refusal, unlike many good and prudent men around him, to compromise or to surrender.
"... He said, 'history will be kind to me -- for I intend to write it.' (Laughter.) History has been kind to Winston Churchill, as it usually is to those who help save the world.
"Today, we are engaged in a different struggle. Instead of an armed empire, we face stateless networks. Instead of massed armies, we face deadly technologies that must be kept out of the hands of terrorists and outlaw regimes.
Yet in some ways, our current struggles or challenges are similar to those Churchill knew. The outcome of the war on terror depends on our ability to see danger and to answer it with strength and purpose. One by one, we are finding and dealing with the terrorists, drawing tight what Winston Churchill called a 'closing net of doom.'"
Smiling at Churchill's family
