"Analysis: Bush Can't Hide From Woes "
MERIDA, Mexico (AP) - President Bush's trip to sunny Latin America was no day at the beach. He was buffeted by complaints about immigration laws, ethanol tariffs, the Iraq war and accusations that the United States was ignoring its southern neighbors.

And back home, the problems continued to pile up.

The revelation of close White House involvement in the firing of eight federal prosecutors sent White House aides into full damage control mode on Tuesday - from afar.

Instead of following their scripted plan of celebrating a shoring up of diplomatic ties with Mexico, White House aides found themselves backing and filling on why the prosecutors were axed.

3. I wonder
what his poll numbers will look like if the market goes into a major "correction". All those talking heads of how great the economy is will be talking out the other side of their mouths.

4. You can't expect the Bush White House to focus on more than Iraq!
I mean, world leaders not involved in Iraq should be lucky if the Bush White House even remembers to call them back. To not focus 100% totally on the Power Surge in Iraq would be admit defeat, which is just what Saddam Barack Hussein Osama Hillary bin Laden Clinton wanted when he planned 9/11...
