Isn’t a vote of confidence inevitably the kiss of death?

One can only hope that very soon W will say, “Rumsy, we need to talk . . .”

With the King of Jordan standing beside him, President Bush said today that he was "sorry" for the abuses inflicted on Iraqi prisoners by American military guards. But Mr. Bush rejected calls for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld despite a rising wave of criticism.

"Secretary Rumsfeld is a really good secretary of defense," Mr. Bush said. "Secretary Rumsfeld has served our nation well. Secretary Rumsfeld has been the secretary during two wars and he is an important part of my cabinet, and he'll stay in my cabinet."
