BUSH ANGER: OBAMA AIDES LEAK CHAT DETAILS
Drudge Report ^ | 11/11/2008 | Drudge

Posted on 11/11/2008 6:41:18 AM PST by autumnraine

Just hours after President Bush and President-elect Obama met in the Oval Office of the White House, details of their confidential conversation began leaking out to the press, igniting anger from the president, sources claim.

"Senator Obama would be wise to keep close counsel," a top Bush source warned.

"BUSH AND OBAMA AT ODDS OVER AID FOR AUTO INDUSTRY," splashed the NEW YORK TIMES in an exclusive Monday evening, quoting "people familiar with the discussion."

The two met at the White House in private, without staff.

"Bush indicated at the meeting that he might support some aid and a broader economic stimulus package if Obama and congressional Democrats dropped their opposition to a free-trade agreement with Colombia," claimed the TIMES.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS quickly followed with details of the conversation, citing "aides who described the discussion on grounds of anonymity, citing the private nature of the meeting."

Bush advisers view the leaks as an effort to undermine the president's remaining days in office.

"Senator Obama may not be familiar with a long-standing tradition of presidents holding their private conversations, private," a senior adviser explained to the DRUDGE REPORT.

You assume vote tallying will not be under their control by 2010? Forget it. Subverting America’s election process is ACORN’s #1 priority.

Watch the unions go after this facility; and of course after WalMart and others just as fast as they can.

Make that two..

Too late, I've already been flipping him off every chance I get. I have even been flipping off people with Obama bumper stickers and houses with Obama signs.

Bush should leak that During the White House tour, Slowbama was always asking “Where is the EAST direction in this room”?

I wonder if there’s any truth to a statement I heard from a friend who said there will be a last-minute debacle involving Cheney but they’ll do it in time for Bush to issue a pardon.

Hello! The guy voted three times in favor of legalized infanticide. You think you can trust him?! No rules apply to him. NONE!

With Obama, don't trust, and verify.

Are people taking what’s left of their 401k’s? Are companies ending the 401k contributions?

He is thinking that he, as the newly elected untouchable, can say what Dems have been wanting to say for decades. Bad-mouthing Mrs. Reagan is just the beginning.

Are you going to call Obama again and congratulate him on an "Awesome night!" again Bushie?

Bush, Bush, Bush....you and the Republicans never fully realized the depth of the evil you are dealing with.

I think the donks will set up progressive candidates in the primaries to challenge the Blue Dogs. That is in conservative districts, so that should be entertaining. They may lose some seats. LOL

It is remotely possible that Bush himself leaked out just enough to atart the ball rolling...is he smart enough to put Obama behind the eight ball with a carefully directed leak?

I am a polite Canadian guy and we would never do anything underhanded like that...;-)

Obama’s inexperience and his choice of aides may compromise National Security as evidenced by this story. Will Obama’s staff leak military info to those who threaten the U.S., thereby resulting in our military personel being KIA???

Zero has no experience running a disciplined staff....

...This is going to be a mess......

...but the press will love it. Lapping up leaks is what they live for.

I wasn’t aware of any exams archived in the NY Times. I don’t seem to find them. Do you have a link?

I believe our voting is already under ACORN’s control. And the wheels on that bus just keep rolling along.

“The two met at the White House in private, without staff.”

Since he talked to W with no one else around, HE leaked it initially.

Maybe he’ll fire himself.

Just wait until Obama signs the executive order providing The New York Times complete access to the CIA, NSA and DIA classified files.
