QUOTE OF THE DAY: We believe that liberty is God's gift to every individual on the face of the earth. We believe people have the right to think and speak and worship in freedom. That's what we believe in America. And that's what you showed the world.

Amazing pictures! Thanks Mike!

[Clara Lou]

Dubya loves what he does, doesn't he? He's great! It's not often that I enjoy looking through photographs of people that I don't know, but Dubya is in a category of his own. I'm so glad he's POTUS. And it pleases me no end to see how our military responds to him [and he to the military]. Wonderful pix, as usual.

[4mycountry]

Wonderful pictures. God bless our President.

I tell you the truth, these soldiers never would have acted this was around Clinton, or Clinton around these soldiers.

We have a truly great President.

[Carolinamom]

Thanks for posting the pictures of this genuinely good man and President. He has both the respect and the love of our fighting men and women.......and all of us! I love the picture of him rushing w/open arms toward the sea of hands reaching out to him. Our prayers for his safety have been answered now that he's HOME.

[Right_in_Virginia]

GREAT pics!! Boy, I'm glad the President's home!

[DrDeb]

Love the pixes of our inspired and inspiring president!!!

I recorded the speech this morning (it aired at 3:15 AM ET) -- AWESOME, absolutely AWESOME! [You can read the text at http://www.whitehouse.gov ]! Bottomline: the troops love their Commander-in-Chief and he loves them -- he got so choked up when he talked about the brave soldiers who had lost their lives in Iraq that he could barely finish the sentence (I have never been more proud of or more inspired by a president in my life!).

FOX NEWS / OPINION DYNAMICS POLL
June 3-4, 2003 (Registered Voters)

President Bush
6/03-04/03 66% approve 26% disapprove (+40)
5/20-21/03 64% approve 26% disapprove

6/03-04/03 67% favorable 27% unfavorable (+40)
3/11-12/03 62% favorable 29% unfavorable

Hillary Clinton
44% favorable 47% unfavorable (-3)

ADDITIONAL FUN FACTS:
George W. Bush would handily defeat Bill Clinton if they were the major party candidates in 2004. In a hypothetical matchup between the current president and his predecessor, 53 percent say they would vote for Bush while less than a third (32 percent) say they would vote for Clinton, with six percent saying “neither." Of course, these two candidates are only imaginary opponents as the U.S. Constitution restricts Clinton from running for a third term.

Poor Hill and Bill -- in an effort to rehabilitate their tarnished images/political careers, they are doing everything possible to destroy the President and are LOSING 'BIG TIME'!!!!

[afraidfortherepublic]

Wonderful pics. My computer wallpaper is one of the many pictures of the President visiting the troops at one of the domestic bases after 9/11. He is wearing a leather bomber jacket with the presidential seal on it; and he is surrounded by young soldiers, male and female, who have such happy countenances. It makes me smile every time I boot up.

I have moved all the icons around so that they don't block any faces.

[mombonn]

I just never thought I could adore a president more that President Reagan. What a blessing to live through the Reagan years, and the Bush years!

[rintense]

Go get 'em, Dubya!!!! Thanks for posting the pics again tonight, Mike!

Psalm 28

¹ To You I will cry, O LORD my Rock:
        Do not be silent to me,
        Lest, if You are silent to me,
        I become like those who go down to the pit.
        ²Hear the voice of my supplications
        When I cry to You,
        When I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.

        ³Do not take me away with the wicked
        And with the workers of iniquity,
        Who speak peace to their neighbors,
        But evil is in their hearts.
        ⁴Give them according to their deeds,
        And according to the wickedness of their endeavors;
        Give them according to the work of their hands;
        Render to them what they deserve.
        ⁵Because they do not regard the works of the LORD,
        Nor the operation of His hands,
        He shall destroy them
        And not build them up.

        ⁶Blessed be the LORD,
        Because He has heard the voice of my supplications!
        ⁷The LORD is my strength and my shield;
        My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
        Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
        And with my song I will praise Him.

        ⁸The LORD is their strength,
        And He is the saving refuge of His anointed.
        ⁹Save Your people,
        And bless Your inheritance;
        Shepherd them also,
        And bear them up forever.

Wonderful! I missed the speech, somehow, but have caught a couple of sound bytes. Wish I could see the whole thing. Gotta tuck my kiddies into bed. But I'll be back.

Thanks MJY, for tonight's dose.

These pictures all reflect a real Commander in Chief! God bless you Mr. President.
