At this rate no one should be surprised that
the President puts politics before country, but here it is again, plain as day.
President Bush said privately yesterday that he believes Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) will be a tough and hard-charging opponent, but said he feels he is starting the general election from a stronger position than he did in 2000.
Bush's views emerged from an unusual 80-minute session in the Oval Office with five network correspondents who agreed that his comments would not be directly quoted or attributed to him.

The Oval Office session was designed to show Bush as eager to campaign and fight back against Kerry, and to portray the president as engaged in the issues of the day. The meeting was supposed to run just half an hour, and Bush seemed to enjoy showing that he could handle whatever topics were fired at him, according to the accounts.
Gee, I thought Dubya was too busy to talk about politics, cause he was so busy fighting terrrrrrism! But numbers prove otherwise: he refuses to give more than 60 minutes to the commission he created to investigate the largest terrorist attacks in American history, but so excited about blabbing about how damn wonderful his campaign is that he gladly goes past his own deadline by nearly an hour.
That's what George W Bush is made of. 60 minutes for terrrrism, but plenty of time for politics.
Don't forget to tell everyone you know...
