This isn’t the most imporant point in the world, but there is still something extraordinary about Bush doing a Rose Garden press conference and calling on reporters from Iraq. Also, I just can’t help but laugh at the odd (and kind of endearing) way Bush puts things–we can’t find Zarkawi because “he’s hiding”; Allawi knows what’s going on in Iraq because “he lives there”; and, of course, suicide bombers are “suiciders.”
