PROPOSED VIDEO MESSAGE
WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY CHRISTMAS PARADE
Good morning. On behalf of Barbara and the whole Bush
family, it's a great pleasure to wish everyone enjoying this
wonderful parade a very merry Christmas.
What a joyful, hopeful day this is for everyone. A day to
gather with family and friends, and share the warmth of quiet
fires and the joyous spirit of the holiday season.
But, let's remember that there are those watching this
morning who are unable to enjoy this special day with their loved
ones: the families whose mothers or fathers, sisters or
brothers, are serving their country in the uniform of our Armed
Forces in the Persian Gulf. To those families whose dinner table
is missing a loved one far, far from home, let's remember that
the courage, commitment and sacrifice of these men and women is
based on nothing less than a love of country and a desire for
world peace. Their mission -- not only speaks to the spirit of
Christmas -- but to the hopes of mankind as well.
And to those outstanding Americans under the banners of our
Armed Forces, Barbara and I extend warm personal wishes and our
sincere gratitude for the sacrifices you make in spending time
away from the people who mean the most to you -- your families.
Words alone cannot describe how proud this President and your
country is of each and every one of you.
This Christmas, let us pray for peace on earth. For the
safe return of all our military troops. And let us give thanks
to the families who wait so patiently.
A blessed and joyous Christmas to you all. And an early New
Year wish of happiness and harmony to our world. Thank you, and
God bless you all.

PROPOSED VIDEO MESSAGE
GOVERNOR BELLMON TRIBUTE DINNER
Good evening. It's great to be in the "Sooner State" for
this special tribute to one of Oklahoma's greatest public
servants -- Henry Bellmon. Henry, congratulations for this
fitting tribute.
In over thirty years of service to Oklahoma, you've
distinguished yourself as a champion of working men and women of
not only Oklahoma, but to the Nation as well. Throughout your
remarkable career, you've had the courage to stand up for your
convictions and have never been afraid to meet the challenges of
the day. And it's only fitting that we're celebrating this
special evening at Central High School. It reminds us all of
your commitment to education and your concern for the next
generation.
But, service to state and country is only one of the many
qualities we salute tonight. As we all aware, its your
compassion for others, your willingness to find lasting solutions
to today's toughest problems that has also distinguished your
career.
And, Henry, on a more personal note, Barbara and I owe you a
great deal of thanks for your friendship through the years. Your
dedication, and your loyalty has really made a difference to the
Bush family. And, your strong support has been a great asset to
me as President.
Henry, have a great time in retirement. Shirley, don't
expect this man to slow down. He'll find another challenge,
another cause. Whether it's working on the ranch, or speaking
out on issues he believes in, Henry Bellmon will continue to be a
strong voice in Oklahoma.
Thank you for including me in this special evening. Henry,
and Shirley, all the best in this new year. God bless you both,
and God bless the great state of Oklahoma.
