A day in the life of President Bush (photos): 10/8/02

QUOTE OF THE DAY: The enemy doesn't sit around worrying about a thick book of regulations. And so, for the sake of our national security interests, the Congress, the Senate ought to give this President and future Presidents the ability to put the right people at the right place with the right equipment at the right time to protect America.

Thanks for the ping and the post.
1. He looks like he means business.

2. I like his consistency in wearing the flag pin.

3. I like the tie, it is very different from the usual ties.

I seldom get here this early in the day.

Ditto on the tie. Looks good with the flag pin. And yes, he is one serious president!

LOL! I didn't see your post until after I'd posted about his tie. If you look closely, the design looks like little red chili peppers!

This is an exerpt, not the entire article, of Phyllis Schlafly's most recent column. It is at www.townhall.com under columnists. She is a lawyer and makes a good argument for W and his judges and how important they are.

The biggest election issue in 2002

The media's passion to report what is going to happen tomorrow rather than what already happened is filling newspaper pages and TV channels with predictions of whether Republicans will retain the House and/or win the Senate. The predictions are virtually worthless. The coming election won't decide whether or not we go to war, whether the Homeland Security bill will pass, whether seniors will get their prescription drugs paid for by the taxpayers, or whether Social Security will be privatized. But the 2002 election will decide whether constitutionalists or judicial activists, control the federal judiciary for the next 30 years. ...

Bill Clinton appointed almost half of all federal judges now serving and they will be on the bench for the rest of their lives. In addition to the 373 Clinton-appointed judges, federal judges appointed by Presidents Jimmy Carter and Lyndon Johnson are still deciding cases. ...

Although Republican presidents made some judicial mistakes, George W. Bush has done his job by nominating judges who respect the Constitution. The Daschle-Leahy Democrats, who control the U.S. Senate, have refused to confirm them or even to allow the Senate to vote on most of them....

We will continue to have an activist judiciary unless we balance the courts with judges appointed by President George W. Bush. While the American people typically have the opportunity to correct a bad election result four years later, a bad legal precedent may last forever. "

A good article for anyone who has time to check it out.
Sorry, I don't know how to post yet, and am a chicken, as someone would probably say it was already posted even though I searched and couldn't find it.

The reason the Democratic Senate is holding up President Bush's nominees is that Senators Tom Daschle and Patrick Leahy want more judges who believe in constitutional "evolution." Most Americans, on the other hand, want judges who rely on the United States Constitution as their point of reference.

It's time for grass-roots Americans to realize how the federal courts have grabbed powers that violate the separation of powers and turned themselves into an imperial judiciary. Nov. 5 is our big opportunity to restore our constitutional form of government by electing senators who will confirm good constitutionalist judges and representatives who will curb the power of the federal courts.

As always, great pictures. Thank you for your dedication to the Dose and all of the Bush Babes and Bucks who check in every night.

I study the pictures carefully, each day, looking for the most uncomplimentary photo. Then I bet myself that that photo will be the only photo of President Bush to show up in my local Knight Ridder newspaper the next morning. I haven't lost a bet yet!!!

A member of the media yelled out to the President, 'Just how large is the senator from New York's rear!' and the President responded with a simple gesture and remark, 'oh, about this big.'
