At the Hispanic Heritage ceremony this afternoon, President Bush welcomed the Crown Prince of Spain to the event.

Mr. Bush sent regards to King Juan Carlos saying:

"Please give your best to His Majesty and your mom. And I will do the same on behalf of you to my father and Her Majesty, my mother."

18-21.
My President then was J.F.K.
If I had to do it all over again, I would not under this administration who knows nothing about morality and values.
I'm well aware that President Clinton did wrong in the oval office with Monica. How many men out there would have walked away from her under the same circumstances? He lied out of fear of losing the things he loved the most. And the Clinton haters wouldn't? Give me a break.
Clintons fooling around verses Bushs being responsibe for thousands being killed. Now let me see, This is perfectly acceptable the the Republican right. How sick.; Reply to this comment

by sadipepe October 6, 2006 7:00 PM EDT: Okay, whoever wrote this is either "doesn't get the joke guy (or girl)", or has ulterior motives in twisting it.

George Bush did not imply that he was king, prince, or anything else! He was calling his mother "Her Majesty", implying that she is queen-like. The President was making a play on words after giving his "best to His Majesty and [the Prince's] mom."

I love it! Barbara Bush has always kicked @ss in my book. She tells it like it is, and doesn't let ANYONE push her around.

I know a bunch of liberal types might make this into a "see, they think they're royalty" type of thing, but CHILL! It's a joke. Barbara Bush IS, and always will be the QUEEN of their family. She is the matriarch, she knows it, she lives it, and therein lies the joke.; Reply to this comment
