The MSM always considered Mr. Bush as a “lame duck” president. As noted on Newsbusters, they’ve taken Iraq out of the headlines and now use the economy worries to focus on. The Money Phrases from the article:(emphasis added)

Last month, Sen. Hillary Clinton urged Bush not to commit to any such agreement without congressional approval. The president said nothing about that on Saturday, but Lute said last fall that the Iraqi agreement would not likely rise to the level of a formal treaty requiring Senate ratification. Even so, it would be difficult if not impossible for future presidents to unilaterally breach such a pact.......

And as in Japan, Germany, Korea and Kuwait, they include a substantial troop presence. Far away in the Persian Gulf, Bush is creating facts on the ground that the next president may not be able to ignore.
