Bush reaches out to GOP lawmakers
Huddle time

http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/05/13/congress.abuse/index.html

President Bush invited a group of House Republicans to the White House on Thursday as part of a newly aggressive effort to consult with Congress on Iraq policy and to try to quiet concerns raised by the prisoner abuse scandal.

1. It amazes me that, every time they catch flak from their policies...
All the Bush* Administration does is try to improve their 'image' rather than actually change what they are doing.

I guess that's what the $200 mil. is going to help them do.

2. Mr. Uniter-not-a-divider
When was the last time he "reached out" to Democratic lawmakers?

AZCat has it right, though. Rather than change their policies, they always huddle to figure out to spin it so it'll become "acceptable."

3. I hope the cut off his arm (figuratively) for "reaching out"
to them.

What a crock!

4. I almost Forgot!
Bush DID claim to be a uniter and promised he'd govern by consensus. The damn liar.
