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.
