Bush has empowered the “Crouch Group,” a small group of advisers being coordinated by Jack D. Crouch II, the deputy national security adviser, to assemble alternative proposals from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the State Department, the Treasury Department and staff of the National Security Council.

Why come up with an alternate game plan? Because Bush clearly has no plans to follow the most of the ISG's recommendations. Better to have partisan recommendations from the same in-house team that helped get the U.S. into this mess.
