www.yahoo.com/news ^ | 19th January 2008 | Snugs

Today is the last full day that George W Bush spent in the White House as President he telephoned current and former world leaders from Oval Office.

Also in his last full day as President he commuted the sentences of two former US border guards facing more than 10 years in prison for shooting a Mexican drug smuggler.

Secretary of Defense Roberts Gates will will sit out Barack Obama's inauguration at an undisclosed location as the "designated successor" in the event of a catastrophe, the White House announced Monday.

Pray for President Bush - Day 3050.

Enjoy Sanity Island on the President's last full day in office

It feels like an end of an era for me. Reagan and 41 were larger then life figures for me when i was a kid in the 80’s. They both had alot in how i became a Conservative. Now with 43 going, i feel like crap.

I will not be using the equipment they have given me for him apart from the bed which I got used a similar one at the hospital but what I will find strange is doing proper cooking again.

Thankfully when the benefit agency did a check on his pension and other disability allowances we only have to pay a small amount each week for his care and the stoma items are classed as medical so is entitled to these free.

Good to see you too Chicago.

I don’t have much time for FR anymore but I will always remember the Rush and Hannity threads as a wonderful time.

Howdy snugs. Here is my last post when GW was renominated:

How did President George W Bush win this election, again? It was simple really, he has prayer while Yaawn Kerry and the DemonRats are Atheists. GW knows that there is a higher power than he. He knows that as the most powerful man in the World, he is but a speck to his Jesus. This is what it means when a man has been, born again. This is why us Christians turned out in force as the silent majority spoke.

In our lifetime we have seen our country turn from a God Fearing Country to Anything Goes and now back. The forces of evil threw everything they had at him and he stood tall and America stood tall with him. While the Stone-age press made every charge under the sun 24/7 on TV and newsprint while the Churches around this great land silently prayed. In the end we have found that our Churches and God prevailed over the deceivers on TV and the newsprint.

Yaawn Kerry received the Rat nomination because as a Vietnam Vet he had the credentials that none of the other midgets possessed. The problem his Party had missed was that he was a war protester who hated America. They also failed to realize the guy is a complete phony. He was not a war hero and vilified his Brothers while they were still in the war. In fact, he should be fully exposed now for his shameful disrespect of honorable men who wore those uniforms and spilled blood earning their medals.

The President has the benefit of ideas that are easily understood. It is not complicated to understand that Iraq and many countries in the ME are supporters of terrorists. It is not complicated to know that our military will do any task that is asked of it if the politicians stay out of the way. It is not difficult to understand that if you cut workers taxes they have more money to spend. And it is easy to trust a man who has a soul and is not afraid to let the world see it. This simplicity is why America loves him nearly as much as the Dinosaur press hates him.

George W is the leader that many of us Republicans have been praying for and the Rats worst nightmare. He has a clear picture of why he is and what he wants to accomplish. This is not about expedience but what is right for America. This is a completely foreign concept to the Liberals. Every move they make and words they say are fake-out poll tested. To take a stand does not happen because they know America does not like their ideas or constant attacks on America. The fact is if the Rats were honest they would admit they are for a Communist form of gummit. That is why they elect an avowed Communist who spends the campaign claiming he had a plan yet never had to indicate what it was.

What have they got to offer now?? America does not want Socialism. We are not the type of people who need a gummit to suckle off and tell us how to live. We are self starters and pioneers who embrace challenges, who enjoy the fruits of our labor. The Rats have various programs and plans to steal our money to give to the non-producers. They see the world through the ideal that Big Gov can make decisions better than we can.

The very people who have made their fortunes from our capitalistic marketplace are the same ones who want to destroy it for the rest of America. They now believe centralized planning is more efficient than individuals. They need to convince everyone that redistribution is good for everyone, when every example has proved exactly the opposite. This truth has forced the Demons to offer lies to hide their true beliefs since America won’t buy the Snake Oil they’re selling.

Now is the time to expose the Rats for who and what they are. They are going to try to lie their way into Truth. We need to bring legislation that will expose them for the Socialists that they are. Make them vote against more tax cuts and for oil exploration in the Alaskan Desert. Make them vote for a stronger military and limiting abortion. We are viewing the end of a Party that has been hijacked by radical extremists and has become a Cancer on America. It is time to reveal this Cancer for all America to see, then operate.

Pray for W and Our Troops

Dear President Bush

Thank you for your great leadership that kept us safe since 9/11/2001 and defeated our terrorist enemy in Iraq.

We will miss you a lot.

God bless you Sir.

If you can, I'd like to ask you to pray for a dear friend of mine. Jim was the best man at my wedding and is the Godfather of my youngest. He is going in for brain surgery on Thursday for a tumor on his pituitary gland. The doctors don't believe it's cancer at this point. But, this gland is so important and controls so many aspects of our bodies, it's vital that they correct the problem. Normal testosterone levels should be 270 and his is 27! He has vision issues as well as extremely low energy.

Thank you all for your prayers. Anytime the brain is involved it's always a little scary.
