[I]n private conversations with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert last week, the president all but disowned the document, said a senior administration official who accompanied Bush on his six-nation trip to the Mideast. "He told the Israelis that he can't control what the intelligence community says, but that [the NIE's] conclusions don't reflect his own views" about Iran's nuclear-weapons program, said the official, who would discuss intelligence matters only on the condition of anonymity....Bush told Olmert he was uncomfortable with the findings and seemed almost apologetic.What a disgrace. Incredible we have to endure an entire year before this guy finally hits the highway. 2008 will feel like an eternity. On the evening of November 4th, the country should celebrate as if it was the mother of all New Year's Days!
