Thousands expected to welcome President Bush
MIDLAND, TEXAS (AP) -- Thousands are expected to turn out to welcome home President George W. Bush in Midland today after he attends the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama in Washington, D.C. Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, Rodney Atkins and Lee Greenwood are on tap to perform for the president and Mrs. Bush. Eight years ago, in January 2001, Midland was the setting for the send-off event as then-President-elect Bush headed for the White House.
