These Bozos Don't understand Bush...

It is amazing that these "political pundits" understand so little about W. Krauthammer is now asking for her withdrawal. W. is a political master that understand that disputes in politics need to be behind closed door, or you lose control of them. That is why he is so good a preventing leaks. If people want to influence W. the last thing they should do is make it public. The more public they make it the harder it is for him to back down. In addition, they less he is going to want to back down because he doesn't want people to think he will give into public pressure.

It is like negotiating with terrorists, if you pay them it just encourages it more. If W. gives into this pressure it will encourage more so he won't. Under Ws political strategy he has done what these guys have wanted so much that now that he hasn't they are so unused to this position they are doing the absolutely wrong thing to get him to change his mind.

This is a loyalty test. Everyone that fails by taking a public position against him is ruining their future influence with him.
