Congressional Black Caucus Snubs Bush

AP via TBO:The chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, complaining of being ignored by the White House in the past, turned down an invitation to meet with President Bush on Wednesday about Bush's recent Africa trip.
Several members of Congress were invited to the White House to be briefed by Bush on his five-nation, five-day trip.

"Mr. President, I need not remind you that the CBC's requests for meetings with you have gone unanswered for more than two-and-one-half years," Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., wrote in a letter declining the invitation.
