And thank you President Bush, for outfoxing um!

Just exactly how did Bush, who was adamant in OPPOSING arming the pilots outfox anyone by finally caving in to overwhelming political pressure (ie a veto prof margin) I Just don't see anything but an antigunner (that would be King George II) being forced to do something that he didn't want to do (arm the pilots). Please explain how this is outfoxing anyone. I'd like to know.

It is so easy. First you take a stance-any stance-that is opposite the one you really want to come to fruition. Immedicately your opponents begin making noises opposite your proclamations. Soon, when the level of noise is just about right, you cave in, accomplishing what needs to be done for the good of the nation and end up looking like a person willing to listen to reason. That is how the WH played this card, imho.
