or has Bush given up?
Iraq and Iran are making noises to try to head off an American invasion, but as to the main man himself. Where is he?
And another thing. I had a closer look at Bush's figures on defence and out of a total of a $38 billion increase next year (that's about $14 billion more than Britain's total of $24 billion) there's only $7.8 billion for missile defence. Exactly the same as this year.
What? Have all those rogue nations decided to chuck in the towel?
Or is Bush having second thoughts on that as well?
I really don't know how a President can dither around so much.
Maggie Thatcher used to do that as the UK slid into massive debt.
But she could be forgiven.
She was a woman!
