I thought that was very strange those words were used by Bush today.

4. Maybe Bush is referring to how she justified her vote on the Iraq war.

Scot McLellan: "The most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on his behalf and help restore credibility he lost amid the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So I stood at the White House briefing room podium in front of the glare of the klieg lights for the better part of two weeks and publicly exonerated two of the senior-most aides in the White House: Karl Rove and Scooter Libby.

Bush: "I think she's a very formidable candidate, and one of the interesting things that she brings is that she has been under pressure. She understands the klieg lights," the president said, in a phrase he repeated twice in the interview.

3. Sounds to me like Rove is still emailing those memos with the

"Word of the Day" and "Phrase of the Day".....

5. W: "I've always thought there should be a long reach to history."

What a grueling interview, Charlie.
