"One thing I find ironic, is that when a bill or amendment that is a "tough sell" comes up in the House or Senate...the politicians will sometimes through the media, gripe that President Bush, Cheney, Condi, or Rummy didn't "come down to Capitol Hill and push for it"... "

Oh geezzz. So, do they need the adults to come down and hold their hands and walk them through the bill so they can understand it or are their egos so big that they think the WH should come to them to get a bill passed, or both??

They SAY that it shows that the President isn't working hard enough for whatever the bill or amendment is about...if he doesn't personally get involved...

What part of "President Bush doesn't play the "lip service" game"....do they not understand...

President Bush is a fun guy...and enjoys a good laugh, but I daresay...that he takes his job too seriously for the congresscritters to think that he isn't working hard enough on HIS end....I am sure he expects the congresscritters to work to do THEIR jobs equally as hard.
