George W. Bush speech after capture of Saddam Hussein:

The success of yesterday's mission is a tribute to
our men and women now serving in Iraq . The operation was based on the superb work of intelligence analysts who found the Dictator’s footprints in a vast country. The operation was carried out with skill and precision by a brave fighting force. Our servicemen and women and our coalition allies have faced many dangers in the hunt for members of the fallen regime, and in their effort to bring hope and freedom to the Iraqi people. Their work continues, and so do the risks. Today, on behalf of the nation, I thank the members of our Armed Forces and I congratulate them.


Barack Hussein Obama speech, Sunday, May 1, 2011:
And so shortly after taking office,
I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda, even as I continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat his network. Then, last August, after years of painstaking work by my intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan . And finally, last week, I determined that I had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice. Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad , Pakistan .

Happy Anniversary

I almost forgot today is my 5th year here at Blogspot, man but the time did fly.

a quick look at some of my past favorites


2007

There was a time when all my pictures were on film, I even dabbled in developing my own for a bit

The anti-war movement was a major focus of my blog, but not in the way you may think from a child of the 60s


2008

Three words; Mary, Katherine, Ham!

 

 


2009

Film was a bit spendy and I ran out of prints to post so I went digital.


I wasn’t very good at taking new pictures every single week but I still needed something to to post on my Sundays, and so I went to my second love, Music


2010

I had big dreams, just no one to grant them….

This was also the year I discovered Seattle Living Room Shows


2011

Did I mention I dream big?

 


2012

For the last few months I’ve turned off my TV and ended the source of much of my political material, but I do manage to find a few juicy bits.

But really today has nothing to do with eggs and rabbits today is all about an empty tomb
