This visit reminds me of what an involved, diplomatic leader we have. Any remaining doubts that I had about Bush's involvement were assuaged I clicked on the link and I saw a picture of a President Bush HANDSHAKE with Karzai. And the visit was a SURPRISE?!?! That is so neat. I like surprises and that seems to make this story even more newsworthy. By reading about this surprise visit I almost forgot that Bush's popularity was at an all time low, that everything he touches turns to crap and that he has no domestic agenda. Thanks for the update, Denise. Scott McClellan and Karl Rove can't write the news themselves. It takes hardnose journalists like yourself to help them. Wow!!!
