Bush Makes Holiday Calls to Troops
Published: 12/24/07, 6:27 PM EDT
By DEB RIECHMANN

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush made Christmas Eve calls to 10 U.S. troops serving in Iraq, Afghanistan and other spots around the world, thanking them for their sacrifice and wishing them a happy holiday even though they'll be far away from their families and friends.

The president made his calls Monday from the Camp David presidential retreat in the Maryland mountains, where he is spending Christmas. He spoke with members of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and U.S. Coast Guard, including seven serving in Iraq.

White House press secretary Dana Perino said Bush knows it is difficult for the children of U.S. servicemen and women to understand why their fathers and mothers cannot be home for the holidays. Bush said that when the children are older, he hopes they'll understand and appreciate their parents' sacrifice, Perino said.

"He said he couldn't thank them enough for their contribution to their country, hopes they are in high spirits, and that they are serving a cause that is very noble," Perino said. "He said, `I know that you miss your family.'"

5. Ah well, if you stare into either one's eyes, the soul is pretty much the same
Pooty is probably smarter than a fifth grader, though..
