and in the hospital 
when President Bush visited him.

Our President spent time and 
prayed with Brian. 
As he was getting ready to leave, 
he went to the foot of 
Brian's bed and saluted.
The injured soldier returned 
the salute out of respect 
to his President .... 

Congressman JC Watts said,
"Character is doing the
right thing when
nobody is looking,"

In this time of war and danger,
I am so grateful to have a
President who knows how to pray.

On Special Report with Brit Hume, 
at the close of the show when 
they normally have some funny 
video clips, they showed
President Bush and the First Lady 
on their way to Maryland 
to leave for Camp David 
for the weekend.

As the video starts, the First Lady 
is leading the 
way into the helicopter with the 
spaniel dog on the leash.
The president is right 
behind her with the Scotty 
on the leash.

As the First Lady entered the chopper, 
the Marine at the gangway 
saluted and held his salute. 
The Scottie the president was 
walking decided it wanted 
to sit .. right when he got to the steps.

The president pulled on its leash, 
but the stubborn Scottie 
persisted in sitting.
The president bent down and scooped 
up the pooch and entered 
Marine One. 

Moments later the President 
reemerged from the helicopter 
and out onto the steps. 
The Marine was standing at attention, 
the President leaned over and 
tapped him on the arm. The startled Marine 
turned his body toward the 
President and received his 
returned salute!


This is a true act of respect for 
our military people 
by our President!

President George W. Bush.
The man who admitted to having
a drinking problem in younger years,
whose happy-go-lucky
lifestyle led him to mediocre grades
in college and came within a hair's
breadth of losing the election in November.

Bush named Jesus Christ as Lord of
his life on public TV.
Not an Oblique reference to being
"born-again" or having
a "life change." He actually said
the phrase, "Jesus Christ!"


On September 11, he was thrust into
a position only known
by the likes of Roosevelt,
Churchill, Lincoln, and Washington.
The weight of the world was on his
shoulders, and the responsibility
of a generation was on his soul.

President George W. Bush walked
to his seat at the front of the
National Cathedral just three days
after two of the most impressive
symbols of American capitalism
and prosperity virtually evaporated.

When the history of this time 
is written, it will be 
acknowledged by friend and foe 
alike that President George W. Bush 
came of age in that cathedral 
and lifted a nation to prayer.
In what was one of the most 
impressive exhibitions of self-control 
in presidential history


President George W. Bush
was able to deliver
his remarks without losing his resolve,
focus, or confidence.
God's hand, which guided him through
that sliver-thin election,
now rested fully on him.
As he walked back to his seat,
the camera angle was appropriate.
He was virtually alone in the scene,
alone in that massive place with God,
just him and the Lord.

Back at his seat, George Bush
reached over and took his son's hand.
In that gesture his father seemed to say,
"I wish I could do this for you, son,
but I can't. You have to do this on your own."

President George W. Bush squeezed back
and gave him a look of peace that said,
"I don't have to do it alone
Dad, I've got Help."

What a blessing to have a professing
Christian as President.


Please take a moment after
you read this to "pray for him."
He truly does have the weight
of the world on his shoulders.
Pray that God will sustain him
and give him wisdom and
discernment in his decisions.

Pray for his protection
and that of his family.

Our President needs all people
of our nation to be praying.
Eventually there could 
literally be millions of people 
praying for him, and for our 
Great Country ....
