WASHINGTON (AP) - With U.S.-Russian relations under heavy strain, President
Bush and President Vladimir Putin will meet July 1 and 2 in Kennebunkport,
Maine, administration officials said Wednesday.
Bush's father, former President George H.W. Bush, has an oceanfront compound
in Kennebunkport.

===================

I doubt any boats will be in and out of Kennebunkport during the visit.

What's with this "compound" ****. Whatever happened to saying somebody
has oceanfront property?

A compound implies multiple dwelings, usually with a security
perimeter.

No, a compound is just more political propaganda speech. Did you ever
once hear the liberal media calling it the Clinton compound? The Edwards
compound? The Gore compound? The Pelosi compound? The Kennedy Compound?
No you do not. Yet you hear about the Bush compound, the Branch Davidian
compound, the Reagan compound. It's about time people started to
recognize how the liberal media constantly tries to cast non-liberals in
damaging fashion.

They would call President Bush's Crawford ranch a compound more often if
they didn't think "ranch" was a better way to disparage the president
because it furthers their agenda in casting the president as a cowboy.
Wake up!

Seems to me that the Kennedy estate is generally referred to as a
"compound," why not the Bush estate also? Besides, Herr Bush is a "War
President." Compound really seems to fit.

Duh -- Google on "Kennedy compound" and you'll get 1,200,000 hits.

No you do not. Yet you hear about the Bush compound, the Branch Davidian

Duh again -- If Kennedy was a "non-liberal" what in the world would
you call him?

Yeah, President Bush would certainly never do anything to further the image
of himself as a cowboy. Everything he does is an attempt to make himself
appear an Ivy League Intellectual. Like, for instance, Peewee Herman.

Geez Neal, can't you find something meatier to whine about?


The Kennedy Compound?

Do a Google search, you get 34,900 hits.

the Bush compound

883 hits. That damn "Liberal Media" seems to be slacking.

In the case of Walker Point in Kennebunkport, I would say compound is a good
description.

It is out on the end of a rock island like land area. And there are
multiple buildings, I think.

Why on earth Bush the President would invite Putin to visit him at
Kennebunkport is kinda strange.

All I know is that this will really screw up the whole place at a very busy
time of year.

At one time, Kennebunkport was a very friendly sailors port. Not anymore.
The money crowd has taken over.
