Diligence and kindness on the part of Tami and Kevin (Charlcie's sister and her husband)netted us tickets to hear President George W. Bush speak at College of the Ozarks. Kevin's position on the faculty allowed him two tickets, but he called a radio station at 5 am to net another two tickets, which were very hard to come by. The President turns out to be a very entertaining and competent speaker. The speech was non-partisan, non-political and highlighted some of his experiences and the story behind many of his key decisions. We very much enjoyed hearing some of his anecdotes and are convinced more than ever that whether you agree or disagree with any of his policies, his actions were made out of strong convictions and with the good of the country foremost in his mind. The more I read current affairs books by and about him, the more optimistic I am that historians in the future will judge Dubya much more positively than the savage treatment he received from many quarters during his two terms.
