Bush has had an eventful past couple of weeks.
His support of the immigration reform bill, strongly opposed by right wing republicans, was defeated. Bush was willing to go against his base.
Bush commutes Libby's prison sentence, and does not issue a pardon. He says he respects the verdict of the jury. His decision really upset liberals and also upset some conservatives.
These events are further evidence to me that Bush does and says what he thinks is right. He is most likely one of the few in Washington not playing political games.
