What a sorry excuse for a body who resides in the white house . One nice thing about it he is only there from the cheating done by the rep .many of us could see thru him from day 1 .
White House rejects war bill concession

WASHINGTON - Democratic congressional leaders on Friday offered
their first major concessions in a fight with President Bush over a
spending bill for Iraq, but the White House turned them down.

In a closed-door meeting with Bush's top aides on Capitol Hill,
Democrats said they'd strip billions of dollars in domestic spending
out of a war spending that Bush opposed if the president would
accept a timetable to pull combat troops out of Iraq. As part of
the deal, Democrats said they would allow the president to waive
compliance with a deadline for troop withdrawals.

But no agreement was struck.

"To say I was disappointed in the meeting is an understatement,"
said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. "I really did
expect that the president would accept some accountability for
what we're trying to accomplish here."

White House chief of staff Joshua Bolten, who rejected the deal,
said any timetable on the war would undermine the nation's
efforts in Iraq.
