QUOTE: "In 2002, I outlined my vision of two democratic states, Israel and Palestine, living side-by-side in peace and security. ... I believe, and Prime Minister Olmert agrees, that a negotiated final status agreement best serves both the Israelis and the Palestinians, and the cause of peace.
"We've just had a really productive meeting. We reaffirmed the deep and abiding ties between Israel and the United States. And those ties include our commitment to democracy and our strong belief that everybody has the right to worship freely. The ties include growing trade and economic relationships. The ties include important educational exchange programs that allow Israeli students to study in American colleges and universities, and American students to travel and study in Israel."
Tony Snow quote of the day: MR. SNOW: Come here. (Laughter.) Whoever thought Helen Thomas would kiss up to me. An apple for the teacher. (Laughter.) [She gave him an apple which he placed atop the podium.]

Gotta hand it to Helen -- the apple thing was a cute gesture. Neal Boortz has said she's a fine and charming woman in person, just has screwed up politics.
Love the shot of Condi: Condi and the boys.

HEY! If it's Tuesday, it must be GRETCHEN! :)
Thanks for the Dose, friend!

Thank you for posting those pictures of President Bush. CNN, ABC... MSM, only post pictures of President Bush at his most awkward moment.
You posted great photos of a true and steadfast leader
Again, thanks.

The Bravest President
National Review | 05/23/06 | Michael Novak
excerpt: Now when he is at his lowest point yet in the polls is the time for those who love and admire President Bush to say so.
What I do want to argue is that, after Washington and Lincoln, Bush is the bravest of our presidents. He has faced the most intense fire, hatred, contempt, heavily moneyed and bitterly acidic partisan opposition, underhandedness, betrayal, of any president in the last hundred years. He has faced hostility over a longer time, in possibly the most dangerous period of international warfare in our national history. He has remained constant, firm, decided, and generous (to a fault) with his opponents. ...
