WASHINGTON -- The absence by Chief of Staff Andrew Card from President Bush's Latin America and Asia trips has increased speculation about a possible reconstruction of the White House staff.
Presidential aides said Card was left behind to handle the crush of congressional business during Bush's absence. However, the chief of staff almost always accompanies the president on foreign travels.
A footnote: Al Hubbard, director of the National Economic Council, is being given a wide variety of domestic assignments beyond economics and is speculated on as Card's possible successor.

The District of Columbia cell of the Communist Party USA has been revealed as holding a monthly luncheon in the cafeteria of the National Education Association (NEA), without the sponsorship but not with the disapproval of the huge, politically powerful schoolteachers union.
The Communist meetings were reported by Chris Peterson in the Washington City Paper edition of Nov. 11-17. A lawyer attending the September meeting bolted from the cafeteria when he learned a reporter was present.
"We had no knowledge of this," NEA spokeswoman Denise Cardinal told this column, "because the NEA does not screen the patrons of our cafeteria or listen in on conversations. It's open to the public."

I never saw one set of "internals" from these anti-Bush polls that were performed objectively.
These polls are just so much toilet paper.
This country is in trouble when the media is so horribly biased.

The old established/liberal/socialist media is America's most ruthless, relentless, and destructive enemy.

Yeah, get Tommy Franks and Russell Honore in there.........maybe they can stop the bleeding on W's coddling and political correctness in this war. To hell with what the world thinks, to hell with what the left thinks, to hell with what the MSM thinks........let's show the muscle we have over there in that hell hole and get the job done once and for all......at all costs! Santa? Are you listening? *~*
I've always thought Card was the lose link in the administraton.... I've just never trusted him for some reason I can't really pin down.
I said that on another thread last night; many people are adamant I'm wrong and it was Powell or Armitage, but my intuition tells me it was Card.
