Bush Unleashed

IT WAS PROBABLY just a coincidence, but did you notice that just as White House communications guru Karen Hughes was wrapping up her last day at the office before leaving town on Monday, President Bush was delivering a remarkably undisciplined–and for that reason quite amusing–press conference?

Three moments stood out (you can’t quite get the full effect from the transcript, but you can get audio and video links here.)
