On March 17, before he delivered a 48-hour ultimatum to Saddam, Bush summoned congressional leaders to the White House. They expected a detailed briefing, but the president told them he was notifying them only because he was legally required to do so and then left the room. They were taken aback, and some were annoyed.
Note that "congressional leaders" would include House Speaker Dennis Hastert and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist -- both fellow Republicans.
But then, as John McCain knows, Jorge isn't really big on the party loyalty thing.
