Article about Barney cam for those of us who can’t seem to get the link to work….
U.S. President George W. Bush speaks in front of a menorah, which was given to President Harry Truman in 1951 by the State of Israel, during a Hanukkah event at the White House in Washington December 15, 2008.
He’s handsome. our President.
And he’s got some really fast moves :)
President Bush is a truly amazing person.
How wonderful that he spent this past weekend with our troops, and with the leaders of two countries that now have their freedom because of his efforts. Hopefully history will give him the credit he so richly deserves.
Barney Cam was cute!!
God Bless President & FL Laura Bush! We won’t see their grace, style and elegance for some time to come.
Thanks daisyscarlett for a wonderful Dose!
Thanks to Kaslin for posting the link on yesterday's Dose which I brought over here but neglected to thank her for. THANKS KAS.
You are welcome and the pictures are great because the subject is terrific!!!!
I tell ya, it chokes me up!!
Remember last year how he literally dove into the crowd in SA to rescue his SS guy and this weekend, he sure did know how to duck!!!
Good evening and thanks for the ping
I will never forget that. I was terrified that they tried to keep his guy out. And then when the President headed for the dining room and shot his cuffs, I laughed my head off. Talk about cool :)
Great photos as usual. I like especially the one with Laura waving from the Truman balcony
I love this photo of the President with the troops. It’s so obvious they know he *believes* in them.
You are very welcome
Yay!!! I haven’t done that in a while!
Snugs...whenever you get the chance (and I am in no hurry)
I would love to have the Bush’s Christmas portrait on my RED toaster. :D
See y’all later!
I love it that he made the trip to both Iraq and Afghanistan before he left office.
That is singer Julianne Hough.
daisyscarlett: THANK YOU for posting tonight’s DOSE — I just love it when the President and First Lady do their own version of Romeo & Juliet!

BTW: I really enjoyed the Christmas Barney Cam! I particularly enjoyed the opening shot with the President, Laura, Barbara, Jenna and Henry (and Barney, Miss Beasley and Kitty) sitting around the fireplace — they are such a genuinely warm and loving family!!! [I wonder what happened to Jenna’s wrist; it appears that she is wearing a cast!]
I saw TMZ over the weekend they interview Don King Don King being boxing promoter said W has moves for boxer half of his age
