I doubt that Bush will be able to remember those kind of small
details. -- Roger

*********************************************
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has decided to break with
President Bush.
Sources close to Mr. Gingrich said that, after having kept silent for
more than a year, he has become openly critical of the
administration, portraying the president as a weak man akin to Gerald
Ford and Jimmy Carter. The former House speaker has warned
conservatives not to expect anything from the White House over the
remaining two years and instead focus on building a base for
leadership for 2008....
The sources said Mr. Gingrich, who refuses to commit to a
presidential bid in 2008, blames White House Deputy Chief of Staff
Karl Rove for Mr. Bush's mistakes, including the loss of Congress in
2006. They said Mr. Gingrich's criticism of the top Bush political
adviser has been considered by the president and this could lead to
Mr. Rove's early departure.
