But the way to look at it, is that Bush took one bullet out of the gun of the Democrats, which is aimed at him.

So your saying he should do everything the Democrats want him to do so he can empty that gun?

No, but I would rather have 0.00023% of the Federal Budget on this ridiculous thing, than have Kerry or Dean as president.

This is election year -- Bush is throwing a very small crumb out, to disarm the Dems on this issue.

Politics is not idealism, it's the "art of the possible".

I trust that Bush and his advisers know what they are doing.
