Today in Bush's Presidency (2001-06-29)

[adamuu]

Today is Day 160 in Obama's presidency. As you watch him struggle with a plate overfull of problems, perhaps some perspective can be gained by looking at what the news day looked like at the same point (day 160) in Bush's presidency. Articles must have "Bush" in the body to be listed and are generally US-centered.

Today in Bush's presidency, there were ongoing news stories about the following topics:

1. Bush defends his energy Policy
2. Microsoft case goes to justice department
3. Bush blocked from drilling in the Great Lakes
4. Airline workers strike
5. Sharon and Bush disagree on settlements
6. Surveys reveal Californians doubt energy shortage

I did not include links for these topics as they appeared in previous posts. ( see link at bottom )
