A Month in the life of George W. Bush. August 2005 (News and Photos)
George W. Bush White House archive ^ | August 5, 2010

Posted on 08/05/2010 6:39:21 PM PDT by Kaslin

August was always the month, when President Bush went to his ranch in Crawford, but unlike the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, President Bush worked during his vacation, as you can see in the photos

Oh patty .. sniff, sniff ..thank you SO much for
finding those pics. What a wonderful and memorable
treat they gave to our ultimately deserving brave
troops. That greeting will be forever burned in
their hearts. Such a loving thing to do. Dubya and
Laura will ALWAYS love, honor and treasure our great
troops, and that love and respect is returned 1000
fold. I just love him even more for doing
this .. whattathrill for the troops.

The folks who volunteer to meet the troops at
DFW Airport are nothing short of awesome. There’s
some folks there to meet EVERY SINGLE troops
flight changing flights or landing there as their
destination.

Meet one fantastic hero who’s SO devoted to
being there @ DFW Airport when our brave
military get off the plane, Bert Brady. What
an angel, and all his compatriots making sure
our troops never forget how loved and appreciated
they are.

OKAY gang .. here’s the Today Show video with
Pres. Bush and Jenna in Haiti. He’ll ALWAYS
be involved with good causes that truly help
people, either in front of or behind the scenes.
God bless him .. prayers for the Haitiian folks.

Good Morning!
Thanks for posting this thread.
I’m a bit out of touch, I sent a Frmail to OWF a while back ago asking about Snugs. Hope she is okay, I haven’t heard from OWF or Snugs in about two or three months.

I keep missing OWF when I log on.

<Oh, man....I’m surprised FOR them!!!

Ha ha. I felt the same way. Can you imagine getting off of the plane and there is GWB - a real man, a real president, a real commander in chief? What a great surprise!

GWB and Laura look great, btw.

Hi, Pippin!

I've been in and out of town (and country!) and have been very busy this summer. Sorry I missed your freep-mail.

DollyCali has let us know that snugs is doing fine, but is very busy and not able to get online much.

How are you doing??

Glad you guys unanimously enjoyed those pics! I guess the only thing I have left to say about the Bushes welcoming the troops is: WOW! That is exactly how I felt the first time I saw those photos on Facebook yesterday and I just couldn't resist the urge to share them on this forum. Apparently, the pics are getting a LOT of attention on the Internet and even on some mainstream media as well. The comments I'd seen elsewhere so far are overwhelmingly positive. Even some people who had many disagreements with President Bush can't deny the fact his support of the troops is genuine and strong.

Meanwhile, George W. and Laura were out and about last night attending the Texas Rangers game. Unfortunately, their beloved Rangers lost to the NY Yankees 7-6, but overall they still enjoyed themselves.

Former U.S. President George W. Bush and former first lady Laura Bush attend the MLB American League baseball game between the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees in Arlington, Texas August 11, 2010.

Bush, and his wife, Laura, right bottom, greet Texas Rangers president Nolan Ryan, left, in the fourth inning of the Rangers' baseball game against the New York Yankees on Wednesday, Aug. 11, 2010, in Arlington, Texas. Ryan and sports lawyer Chuck Greenberg are awaiting final approval of their deal to buy the Rangers.

The grin on that MAN’s face is because of whom sits beside him, always his support, his love of his life, the mother of his children, and one of the finest women God put on this Earth. Is she without fault? Hardly, but gosh, how blessed is that MAN to have Laura at his side lo these many years!

That's my favorite too, patty. And it's got something in it that you can see in many, many photos....

The father has his arm around the President. He's completely comfortable, because there are no airs........just a regular guy playing with a baby (who clearly is fascinated!) You see that every time President Bush meets people. Comfort.

Great photo. I hope the family has it! It's a treasure.

I always check out this thread but to tell the truth it is hard to do so. It is a painful reminder that the office of the President once held by a man who loved his country and his troops and based his decision on what was best for his people, is now held by one who seems to hate his country and his troops and bases all his decisions on politics and what he thinks is best for him. I miss the class that W displayed.
