Bush won't promise further troop cuts 

Watch this spot for current government news!

CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush declined Saturday to promise more U.S. troop withdrawals from Iraq before he leaves office, and underscored the need for a strong military presence during Iraqi provincial elections in October.

Security has improved markedly since last summer when the last of five Army brigades arrived in Iraq to complete the president's buildup of 30,000 troops. One brigade has already returned home and the four others are to leave by July. What remains unclear is whether Bush will order additional drawdowns in the final months of his presidency.

"There is going to be enormous speculation," he said. "My sole criterion is, whatever we do, it ought to be in the context of success."

The president spoke at his Texas ranch where he hosted Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen for talks about NATO's complex mission in Afghanistan, climate change, Iran and other trans-Atlantic issues. They took time, though, for a two mountain bike rides at the dusty ranch at sunset Friday and again at sunrise Saturday.

"You made me work very hard out there on the terrific mountain bike trails," Fogh Rasmussen said.

Bush said the Danish prime minister did not "even break into a sweat."

I guess it's good that I do not qualify to be President of the United States. I would be tempted to sell America on ebay and bought cookies. Nice lens.

Great idea for a lens! I'd never want to be president, but it's fun to imagine!

A president has to have the guts to make decisions that are best for the country, not best for the polls. That person needs to take stand given the circumstances at the time. It cannot be a popularity contest. People cite only the polls that people agree with. They cite Bush's approval ratings, but neglect to mention that congress is much lower.
Good stuff, enjoyed the visit!

If I could, before I quit, I would require that before any new law, agency, program or fee was enacted -- three would have to be removed. Then I would cut the budget by 70% and tell them to make it work. Finally I would pass an amendment that congressmen had to read every law they passed, and congress would be in session only one month of the year (like in Nevada).

I wouldn't have to quit - I'd be impeached for being reasonable.
