It started out as a fluke. Lynn Faulkner had been offered an extra ticket
to a Bush campaign event by his neighbor Linda Prince. Mr. Faulkner decided
to offer it to his 15-year old daughter Ashley who he expected would
decline, as she would have to miss some school to attend. But his daughter
surprised him. Ashley reminded her dad how four years ago they attended a
similar event when then Texas Governor George W. Bush visited the same
spot on the campaign trail.
Ashley remembered attending that event with both her father and her mother
Wendy Faulkner. It was raining that day and they all stood in the rain
awaiting Governor Bush "eating Triscuit crackers" enjoying the time
together and hoping to get a glimpse of the would-be president. Ashley
recalled holding her mothers hand as they waited. So she decided to go
again this year, but this time her mother could not attend Wendy Faulkner
was murdered on 9/11/01 in the south tower of the World Trade Center. She
was there on the 104th floor for a one-day meeting. Ashley decided to miss
school in honor and remembrance of her mother and attend the event.
So the trip was on. Linda Prince, along with Lynn and Ashley Faulkner,
were off to the Golden Lamb Inn in Lebanon, Ohio for the event. The group
arrived early and got a spot close to the front. As the event wound down,
the president worked the line in full campaign mode shaking hands and
signing autographs. As the president passed the group, Mr. Faulkner got an
autograph, and the president continued on until Linda Prince spoke up,
"This girl lost her mother on 9/11," Prince told the president.
Then everything changed.
"The president's entire expression transformed," Mr. Faulkner told me
on Sunday. "He turned and came back against the flow and his eyes
locked on Ashley's. His face showed a man who was no longer the president,
he was a father and a husband." President Bush made his way back to
Ashley and he embraced the 15-yeal old young woman. "She snuggled in
with the president just like she did when she was a little girl with her
dad," Mr. Faulkner said. "I know it's hard," Mr. Faulkner
heard the president tell his daughter. "I'm okay," Ashley told
the president. The embrace continued.
Mr. Faulkner had his Kodak digital camera with him and debated on invading
this very private moment between his daughter and the leader of the free
world. "For 20-30 seconds the president belonged exclusively to Ashley,"
Lynn Faulkner told me. So he decided to capture the moment without
invading Ashley and the president's privacy. He held up his digital
camera, not even aiming with his eye and with one click snapped just one
picture. It showed in detail the face of a compassionate man who just
happens to be the president comforting a young woman who lost her mother
in the 9/11 attacks on America.
Mr. Faulkner told me that he saw tears in his daughter's eyes, and saw
emotion that he hadn't seen from his daughter in 2 ½ years. Ashley told
her dad, "The way he was holding me, with my head against his chest, it
felt like he was trying to protect me, he wanted to make sure that I was
safe." That feeling is captured in a very clear way in this moving unscripted
photo. It's the only photo of this special embrace as the press corps had
already been ushered back on the bus. And the photo was never meant for
publication. All Mr. Faulkner did when he returned home from the event was
e-mail it to 15 friends and family. But by the middle of last week, I had
received the photo from eight different people. Others were also receiving
the photo and forwarding it along. It became an Internet phenomenon, as it
was e-mailed around America.
Mr. Faulkner called the embrace "President Bush's precious gift to my
daughter." And with his small act of e-mailing that photo to friends
and family, the picture can now become a gift to the American people.
And as sad as the story is the release and publication is a good thing.
Disgusting photos coming out of Iraq for the past 10 days have shocked
Americans, as they should have. But no longer are the terrible images of
9/11 shown. While the Iraq prison photos have been picked up by the elite
media and shown time and again, this touching photo has gone largely
ignored by the mainstream media. But the alternative media has made this
touching powerful photo one of the most e-mailed photos of last week. The
Internet once again took over where the elite media failed Matt Drudge ran
it on May 7th, as did the Page 2 Politics journal, and hundreds of other
blogs. Millions have now seen it, but millions more need to. It gives a
stark reminder why America is at war with radical Islam and other terrorists
around the world that are determined to cause this kind of pain to other
American families.
The images of 9/11 have faded in the minds of far too many Americans. This
picture and this family's riveting story give a stark reminder of why America
is at war. Each day around the globe our soldiers are fighting in an
attempt to prevent any other event as terrible as the murders that took place
on 9/11. Look hard at this picture. See the compassion and sadness on the
president's face. Look at this young woman, see her grief and listen her
father's words. Ashley and her sister Loren just spent their third
Mother's Day without their mother, as did thousands of other children who
lost their mothers on 9/11 at the hands of ruthless uncaring terrorists.
Imagine yourself in that position.
Then remember why America is at war, and consider the type of person America
should have leading that war.

Prayers from YOU for our President
From: Fran 10-28-04 I just want everyone to pray that President Bush is re-elected. Many people do not understand that the Democratic party is trying so hard because there are so many Supreme Court judges that will be up for election and they are wanting to tear down our moral even more. We need judges that will be FOR the family and our children. Please pray.
From: Margie 10-20-04 I would like prayer for the Lord to make the people, the people that are Lord lead to stand out and make a difference, be noticed and be voted for. This is for the White House and every state in this country. We are Lord's People and we cannot let the devil try to destroy us. This is the Lord's country-The shining City on The Hill!!
From: Angie 10-3-04
I pray that God watches over our country and helps our nation make the right
decision with the election. I myself believe that President Bush is doing an
awesome job in serving our nation. I fear (honestly) that if Kerry is elected
that our nation will be in grave danger. God IS the
answer and I know He will ensure that we are taking care of us.
I also have a prayer request for myself, that God be with my baby and me through
out my pregnancy. All I want is a healthy baby. I also need help to tell my
parents and hope that they are excepting. I love you with all my heart Jesus.
Amen.
From: Rene' G. (Michigan) 8-27-04 I would like all who see this prayer request to immediately get on their needs and pray for our president, his wife, children, cabinet and the RNC. There has been a smear campaign going on since John Kerry started campaigning for the Democratic Party. It started with his criticism and his demeaning President Bush's service to our country during the Vietnam conflict. John Kerry went there just long enough to be able to use his service to become a political figure. The news has stated that he did not even shed any blood and was there for only 4 months. He has used his service whenever he is able and denounces Bush's service in the same breath. Bush needs our prayers constantly every day not just in passing when we think about it. He is a godly man and we cannot afford to have a president that approves of gay marriage & abortion! We need a president that calls evil, evil; wrong, wrong; immoral, immoral and takes a godly stand on issues that concern this country. Thank you for your prayers. Rene'
From: Rene' G. (Michigan) 7-11-04 I pray for my President and ask that he and his family and cabinet members be protected. I pray for a hedge be placed around them all by God my Father and Friend. May you get the rest you need and may there be Victory for all Christians in November by you being reelected!

WOULDN'T
IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR GEORGE W. BUSH GIVE THE FOLLOWING
SPEECH?
My Fellow Americans:
As you all know, the defeat of Iraq
regime has been completed. Since
congress does not want to spend any more money on this war,
our mission
in Iraq
is complete.
This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all
American
forces from Iraq.
This action will be complete within 30 days. It is
now time to begin the reckoning.
Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries
which have stood by our side during the Iraq
conflict. This list is
short. About 30. The United
Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, Australia,
Hungary and Poland are
some of the countries listed there.
The other list contains everyone not on the first list. Most of the
world's nations are on that list. ! My press secretary will be
distributing copies of both lists later this evening.
Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those
nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved
during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the
Iraqi war.
The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world
countries and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.
Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France.
In the future, together with Congress, I will work to
redirect this
money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home.
On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Fool around with us
and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from
the face of the earth. Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try
France, or maybe
China.
To Israel
and the Palestinian Authority. Boys, work out a peace
deal now. Just note that Camp
David is closed. Maybe all of you can go
to Russia
for negotiations. They have some great palaces there. Big
tables, too. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bon chance,
mes amis.
I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN
diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan
with more than two unpaid
parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be
stripped, shredded
and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You
creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets
tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers, and limos be turned
over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New
York.
A special note to our neighbors. Canada
is on List 2. Since we are
likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might
want to
try not making us mad for a change. Mexico
is also on List 2. President
Fox and his entire corrupt government really need an attitu!
de
adjustment. I will have a couple extra tank and infantry divisions
sitting around. Guess where I am going to put em? Yep, border security.
So start doing something with your oil.
Oh, by the way, the United
States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty --
starting now.
We are tired of the one-way highway. It is time for America
to focus on
its own welfare and its own citizens.
Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, "Darn
tootin."
Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the
world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on
the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America.
It is time to
eliminate homelessness in America.
To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We
owe you and
we won't forget. To the nations on List 2, a final thought. We also
won't forget.
God bless America.
Thank you and good night.
If you can read this, thank a
teacher. If you are reading it in English, thank
a soldier.

I got this from an email that was sent to me. I don't know its origin, but I agree with the message! ~ Webmaster
It
used to tick me off when the Muslim detractors in the Middle East, or the
socialist detractors in Europe, Hollywood and others called our President a
cowboy, but the more I think about it, the more glad I am that he is.
When
I was a kid, cowboys were my heroes.
Well,
I mean the ones in the white hats, not the black hats, who were usually the bad
guys
What
were common attributes of these legendary cowboys
Here
are a few:
1. They were never looking for trouble.
2. But when trouble came, they faced it with courage.
3. They were always on the side of right.
4. They defended good people against bad people.
5. They had high morals.
6. They had good manners.
7. They were honest.
8. They spoke their minds and they spoke the truth,
regardless of what people thought or "political correctness,"
which no one had ever heard of back then.
9. They were a beacon of integrity in the wild, wild West.
10. They were respected. When they walked into a saloon
(where they usually drank only sarsaparilla),
the place became quiet, and the bad guys kept their distance.
11. If in a gunfight, they could outdraw anyone. If in a fist fight, they could
beat up anyone.
12. They always won. They always got their man. In victory, they rode off into
the sunset.
Those
were the days when there was such a thing as right and wrong,
something blurred in our modern world, and denied by many.
Now,
I still like cowboys..
They
represent something good --
something pure that America has been missing.
Ronald
Reagan was a cowboy.
I like Ronald Reagan, who was brave, positive, and who gave us hope.
He wore a white hat. To the consternation of his liberal critics, he had the
courage to call a spade a spade and call the former Soviet Union what it was
-- the evil empire. Liberals hated Ronald Reagan.
Those were the days when there was such a thing as right and wrong,
something blurred in our modern world, and denied by many.
They
represent something good --
something pure that America has been missing.
They
also hate President Bush because he distinguishes between good and evil.
He calls a spade a spade, and after 9-11 called evil "evil," without
mincing any words,
to the shock of the liberal establishment. That's what cowboys do, you know.
He
also told the French to "put their cards on the table" (old West
talk),
which they did, exposing their cowardice and greed.
The
radical Muslims are wrong.*
In the old West, might did not make right.
Right
made might.
Cowboys
in white hats were always on the side of right, and that was their might.
I
am glad my President is a cowboy.
He
got his man!
Cowboys
do, you know.
