Romania is in NATO! Thank you Ronald Reagan and thank you to the people of Romania who overthrew their own version of Bill and Hillary Clinton just 13 years ago - Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu.

Maybe someday she'll be doped with truth serum and we'll really find out how it was done.

She'll run short of cash eventually; probably sooner than later. I predict she'll eventually write a book about the 2000 Elections. By that time, the RATs should be so irrelevant in American politics that she'll suffer no repercussions by writing a "tell-all" account of the vote fraud.

Are these new NATO countries within shooting distance of Iraq?

... a little more stomach acid irritates Al Gore's already overstressed esophagal lining.

Out of curiosity, I checked Amazon's bestseller list this morning.

Al & Tipper's book is at No. 700!

Sorry I missed this thread; I just happen to hear all the cheering and went in the Bonus Room to watch; that was amazing. I couldn't get over all those people.

And the rainbow!

RE: A rainbow came out..........

It sure helps to have God as your top PR man, doesn't it? Rainbows can be arranged, Elections can be won, and hearts can be changed. All you have to do is be righteous, and ask for his help.

Great speech and GREAT reception by the Romanian people. I think our president was overwhelmed by the reception.

Sure makes you proud, doesn't it?

[MaeWest]

Does anyone have the pic of George and Laura getting off the campaign plane with the rainbow that appeared over them?

It sure beats spending your life wondering if you've effectively covered up the last lie, for sure. Every leader needs a source for their strength and courage. Bush picked the most reliable source, and he's reaping the benefits. I don't know that I've ever had more instinctive feelings of trust for any politician. I just don't see a speck of phoney on him and never have.

Romania...

A physics colleague of mine, as a bright young Ph.D. in Romania... escaped from his KGB handlers while on a physics conference in New England (late '70's)

He came to teach in a university in the mid-atlantic states.

Years later I attended his naturalization ceremony with a gift, the book, "Jefferson and the Rights of Man".

I followed, with him, the horrors of the last years of Ceausescu and the massacres... and the liberation.

Now he lives in a beautiful home (most of it built himself) near the university where he is tenured... with a wife and two wonderful daughters.

Yes...God Bless Reagan

[WOSG]

Certainly a better reception than he would get in Berkeley.

Yeah. But the Communists still run Berkeley and have yet to be deposed there.

"Ever wonder how much you and every American are now going to get to shell out for the upgrade of all these poor nations' militaries. Let me let you in on a little secret"

Have you ever thought how much it would cost us if we didn't? Clinton administration foreign policy was one of blackmail and bribery. It temporarily solved the problems, until the money was gone. Europe is acting like any spoiled teenager acts when their allowance is cut of and Mom and Dad make them grow up and do things on their own.

Was lucky I just happened to turn on TV just as it was beginning.
Was wondering what so many were looking up at until President Bush mentioned the rainbow.

Couldn't believe all those people waving American flags! They're starting to realize what a great President and world leader Bush is.

Al & Tipper's book is at No. 700!

A "pity". Apparently, Cottonelle's already cornered the market on toilet paper.

[Howlin]

So much for the ones who say he can't handle himself on an international basis.

[Howlin]

[Senator Goldwater]

Interesting how the Democrats rapped Bush for not knowing the names of various world figures during the 2000 campaign.

But they all know his.

Awesome photographs!!!!
thanks

[MaeWest]

Fabulous! Thanks!
