While I can understand those who think Bush will resist doing much of anything about Iraq for the rest of his term..--personally, I suspect he'd like to just keep things exactly the way they are, and slog along until the 2008 election, where the GOP would be hammered by the dems, and then they could blame a Dem president and congress for "defeat" in Iraq--I suspect Bush is not going to have much choice here.
I would guess he's going to be having some very difficult private conversations with the people who put him in office in the first place, and those people are not going to be cutting him much slack. I think boy-george is basically going to be told what to do, and he's not going to be given the option of making his own decision about it.
So, I expect he's going to do something. It'll be interesting to see what he does, though, and even better, to hear and see how the White House spins all this.
What a bunch of losers.
