To clarify;
I meant that POTUS made a shrewd political move getting ahead of the commission's report and calling for complete adoption of it's findings pre-election day. This is not to say the President does not believe in reform, in fact I believe his sincerity is genuine and support him fully. With the victory on the 2nd I think President Bush fell back for a moment, reevaluated his original position, then decided his advisors may be correct and this should be debated at greater length (thus throwing a burr in Nancy's saddle). Unfortunately he cannot reverse himself publicly without daggers flying from every Democrat with a cellphone hence my reference to Sensenbrunner and Hunter who took the lead and scrapped the vote.
