President George W. Bush addresses the press during a meeting about medicare in the Roosevelt Room April 23, 2007. "It took a monumental effort by a lot of citizens around the country to make the options that our seniors were given easy to understand," said President Bush. "In other words, we reformed Medicare and gave seniors a lot of choices, and it took a lot of loving Americans a lot of time to make these choices available for our senior citizens. Now that the plan is in place, 39 million have signed up for it, drug costs are less than anticipated, and the cost to the taxpayer is about $200 billion less than anticipated."

Laura and I are deeply saddened by the death of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin. President Yeltsin was an historic figure who served his country during a time of momentous change. He played a key role as the Soviet Union dissolved, helped lay the foundations of freedom in Russia, and became the first democratically elected leader in that country's history. I appreciate the efforts that President Yeltsin made to build a strong relationship between Russia and the United States. We offer our sincerest condolences to the Yeltsin family and to the Russian people.
Likewise :) This thread and everyone that participates on it have been a personal blessing to me.
Seeing the insanity on some of the other threads makes me appreciate that even more.
are the pix grainy to all y'all?
That's one less for you, Buddy :-D
Me too...it’s really frustrating. :(
That’s one less for you, Buddy
.....and I was being so nice to congratulate you.....
Exactly. It’s wonderful to be treated with respect.........and increasingly rare on the ‘outside.’
They’re crisp to me. I’m sorry you’re unable to see them clearly.
There's no rush. Thank you in advance, Snugs :)
I watched the video on our local news site....Bush was pretty funny....sadly noted I do not see Ashley Manning anywhere. She was not in the Saturday Night Live audience and I am not seeing her @ the White House....I hope all is well for them.
I don’t want to say anything else at this point, but I think we’re on the same page.
Had I won the toaster, I would have selected that one too. :0)
I’m done too. Just wanted to express my appreciation for what we have here.
Wouldn’t you know Condi would be out to greet the football team...LOL
Who’s Ashley Manning?
I know and I echo your sentiments. I am most grateful for the Dose.
Agreed. Too often anymore I am wondering 'who *are* these people?
Absolutely!!! I “knew” she’d be there and I looked right away for her photos!!!
A reasonable question to ask.
