Bush flip-flopped on stiffing the 9/11 panel after Kerry called him on it
What a wuss Bush is!
Pathetically weak, boilerplate response from Scott "Sucker MC" McClellan, wouldn't you agree?
That's—count 'em—one, two, three Bush flip-flops on the 9/11 commission alone! But hey, who's counting?
Kerry issued a statement saying, "It's good to see that the president has finally found time in his schedule to spend more than an hour with the 9-11 commission to investigate the greatest intelligence failure in our nation's history. I think all Americans hope that his cooperation with the commission will lead to real answers instead of more stonewalling."
White House spokesman McClellan fired back at Kerry. "It appears he doesn't want to let the facts get in the way of his campaign," McClellan said.

It was the administration's latest change of heart about the commission. [1] Bush originally had opposed the panel's creation. [2] Then he had opposed its request for a two-month extension of its work but [3] eventually relented. Bush is intent on protecting his standing with Americans on the war on terror, which in polls is his best issue with voters.
