Molly Kate

This is an excerpt from the email I received from the mom of Molly Kate Wilkinson, the girl I wrote about earlier today. The following words were offered in addition to the story posted at Betsy's Page in early September about her meeting with President Bush:

These were kids that have obvious mental, physical, and emotional challenges. George W. Bush understood that having media there would have caused confusion and anxiety for these kids. He continually asked his Secret Service agents to "stand back" and "leave this kids alone, please!" when they were crawling all over him.

At one point, he was holding a small tot, who was wailing away with no intention of stopping. President Bush looked at us all and said, "Well, he sounds just like my colleagues in Congress!"
He treated my own daughter with unbelievable patience and concern. She spent several minutes with him, telling him about our son, a US Marine stationed overseas. He stopped, looked her right in the eye and said, "You tell your brother that I said to tell him that I am grateful to him for his service and that he has a great little sister".

Sharing this story with others who do not get the chance to observe, first-hand, the compassion and quiet dignity this man has, is a way I can help with President's Bush re-election. To me, all the issues are important, a man who behaves with integrity when no one is watching is a quality I value most.

Additional accounts of Molly Kate's story can be found here and here.

These acts of kindness he is noted for always seem genuine. Whereas Kerry can't even throw a ball without it seeming to be staged (and weak).

Someone please explain how anybody could harbor the kind of anger and hatred toward this good and decent man that we see on bumper stickers, in the left's propaganda and reported by MSM? That these same people have no problem with Kerry and think he's totally cool defies any logical explanation.

Our President is a good man.

This wonderful story confirms what a fine man W. is. I met him for the second time on the day in April 2001 when the crew of the plane downed in China were released. He had just met with one of the soldiers' families. He was so happy that day. His face has a glow that you don't see in Kerry's.

we may judge a man’s ability by three things ：by what he has done （including the impression he has made on others ），by what he himself appears to believe he can do ，by our own dramatic imagination ，based on his immediate personality ，of what he might do． If these do not agree it is prudent to observe him further．

One understands that humen's life is not very cheap, nevertheless we need cash for different issues and not every one gets enough money. So to get good personal loans and commercial loan would be a correct way out.
