President Bush spoke to the New Hampshire Air National Guard in Portsmouth, New Hampshire today. The Granite State was the only Northeastern state to vote for Bush in the 2000 presidential election. And next year, Americans will decide if they like the job he's doing.
The state of the economy and the war in Iraq are not popular issues with the American public right now. And Bush's poll numbers are markedly down. But George Bush has shown himself to be a fighter, and he struck a fighting pose today in New Hampshire, where he laid out the message and image he is bound to carry across the country over the next year.

White House's PR Offensive on Iraq |
Listen
When Chief U.S. weapons inspector David Kay reported to Congress last week, politicians on both sides of the aisle were miffed that three months of searching for Saddam's weapons of mass destruction had essentially come up empty.
But today, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice had a different interpretation of Kay's weapons report. She told a foreign policy forum in Chicago that Kay "is finding proof that Iraq never disarmed and never complied with U.N. inspectors."
Rice's speech was just part of a White House P.R. offensive on Iraq that officials say will include speeches by President Bush and Vice President Cheney, as well as high-profile trips to Iraq by cabinet secretaries to illustrate areas of progress.
