insisting that Condi Rice brief him (privately?) on all the good news of the day, everyday....

WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush recently gave an hour-long exclusive interview to Fox TV anchor Brit Hume, who tossed him a series of softball questions.
Among them, Bush was asked how he gets his news.
Answer: He relies on briefings by chief of staff Andrew Card and national security adviser Condoleezza Rice.
Bush said. "I rarely read the stories," he said. Instead, the president continued, he gets "briefed by people who have probably read the news themselves."
Rice, on the other hand, is getting the news "directly from the participants on the world stage."
Bush said this had long been his practice. http://www.thebostonchannel.com/helenthomas/2547076/detail.html
