Coexistence...or Collision?
In George W. Bush's World, change is only good of you don't change anything with his fingerprints on it.
We know ho he feel about challenges to his various nominees, no matter how it reeks of cronyism. It's a forgone conslusion that he'll have a hissy-fit if the Democrats undo his precious tax cut...even though having some extra money during wartime would be a really good thing.
So I can only imagine Bush's reaction when he hears that some Democrats plan to do a P. Diddy remix on his 2002 Iraq War resolution.
What are the odds that he'll say this move would help the terrorists? That it'll harm the morale of the troops? That it'll make America less safe?
If new version passes...would he abide by it, or pull out his "unitary executive" card, and put the nation in a constitutional crisis during wartime?
We have a Congress full of Democrats who aren't going to bend over to Bush's demands anymore; and we have a Republican President who, to date has only paid lip service to the concept of bipartisanship. Something's gonna have to give.
