I wonder who made him do it?

I wonder when he did it. My theory is that the simpletons running the WH PR dept decided on the pre-empt Donald timeframe, and then someone said “I wonder if President Bush should be notified before he learns of it on air?” And then our dear leader had to make a series of courtesy phone calls.

Courtesy not being one of the natural attributes of the current occupants of the West Wing, it probably was a last minute decision.

Suspect the Brits knew about it sooner than we did. Reason that the newly weds decided to postpone their honeymoon, and Wm and Harry report back to work this morning. Duty first.

I guarantee that - it was both a last minute decision, and it wasn't his idea.

He would have never thought of notifying President Bush. Frankly, I'm shocked that anyone on his staff did.

Must have been purely a PR decision, and an after thought at that.
