WASHINGTON - For days, President Bush (news - web sites) has been performing on the world stage — and trying to meet, one by one, the criticisms of Democratic rival John Kerry (news - web sites). Bush's recent moves and concessions may be an attempt to buy insurance against some of the sharpest Democratic criticism he can expect in the fall.

His political advisers also want to protect the GOP's traditional lead over Democrats on national security issues.

But much of that may be lost on Americans preoccupied, for now, with the death and legacy of Ronald Reagan (news - web sites).

The string of international meetings has enabled Bush to exhibit presidential leadership abroad, a role Kerry can't play.

Resign!!

steady Bush!

the big boys at the G8. Bully for him..didn't sound like it went too well for Shrubby though, now did it?

"The string of international meetings has enabled Bush to exhibit presidential leadership abroad, a role Kerry can't play."

What the hell, Bush cant play either, He’s such a God Damned moron he’s making us all look bad.
Imagine the talk when this grinning idiot leaves the room.
He’s a fucking numbskull, He can barely read or speak English for God’s sake.

Well, we just can't estimate the power of a President, any President, to control an agenda. It is a powerful political tool. I think Kerry's team is pretty sharp and will deal with it.

Didn't work out too well thanks to good ol' St. Ronnie!

His timing was impeccable. He could have died during the Democratic convention or a couple of weeks before the election, but he chose to do it just in time for Bush's Week of Photo-Ops.

JK's got him on the run in every single area. The only remotely positive Bush* number is National Security. Watch for Jk to attack without mercy in that arena now.
