Q Mr. President, you have said that you have the Baker-Hamilton report, you also have the -- you're waiting to hear from the Pentagon, you're waiting to hear from the State Department. This report was prepared by a bipartisan group, the only one you'll get. Secretary Baker has a special relationship with the family. Should this report not get extra consideration? Does it not carry more weight than any of the others?

PRESIDENT BUSH: That's an interesting question. It's certainly an important part of our deliberations, and it was certainly an important part of our discussions this morning. Some reports are issued and just gather dust. And truth of the matter is, a lot of reports in Washington are never read by anybody.

To show you how important this one is, I read it, and our guest read it. The Prime Minister read -- read a report prepared by a commission. And this is important. And there are some -- I don't think Jim Baker and Lee Hamilton expect us to accept every recommendation. I expect them -- I think -- I know they expect us to consider every recommendation, Jim. We ought to pay close attention to what they advise. And I told them yesterday at our meeting that we would pay close attention, and would seriously consider every recommendation. We've discussed some of their recommendations here at this press conference. And we are -- we will spend a lot of time on it.

And I -- and so you ask its relative importance. I'd call it a very important report, and a very important part of our working to a new approach, a new way forward in Iraq.

And I can't -- I really do thank those citizens for taking time out of busy lives to spend time helping us look at different options. These are distinguished souls; they got plenty to do. They're busy people, and yet they took nine months out and they talked to a lot of people. They went to Iraq, they thought about it a lot, and it was a very considerate, important report. And I will take the recommendations very seriously.



-- George W. Bush, White House Press Conference regarding Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group report, December 7, 2006


Bush read the report because it's important.

down the multisyllablic words for him while he mastered that difficult three syllable word, "important" for his press conference.

Freaking phony. I don't believe he actually ever reads anything. He just has someone come in and orally give him the Cliff Notes version of it and asks them if it makes him look bad or not and then has Rove go into do the fluffing to make it better.

Lets see, does this all mean we have 5 more years over in Iraq before some President or the House pulls the plug and we creep up to one of Saddam's palace roofs. I swear this is like Alice in Wonderland. My bet is Bush will do nothing. This report by men we did not put into the govt. comes after the men Bush put in power and looks like it has a million ways for it to be used but not to get out. See what Bush does, not what he will say. Men who are sure they are 'right' do not give up usually.

I didn't read the report at all, which is why I'm being incredibly redundant while talking about the report while never discussing any of the content.

interesting, it is going to be totally ignored by him or given some sort of bullsh** reaction. IMO, he has no intention of adopting any recommendations from any source unless they agree with what his policy has been all along. He may make some minor adjustments, but I don't expect any real changes.
