From Al Maliki: Memo To Bush
Dear President Bush: F*#K You:
AMMAN, Jordan -President Bush's high-stakes summit with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki was put off Wednesday after public disclosure of U.S. doubts about his capacity to control sectarian warfare. The White House said the two leaders would meet on Thursday.

The postponement was announced shortly after Bush arrived here for talks with Jordan's King Abdullah II and al-Maliki. Bush's meeting with the king was to proceed on schedule.

White House counselor Dan Bartlett denied that the move was a snub by al-Maliki or was related to the leak of a White House memo questioning the prime minister's capacity for controlling violence in Iraq.
Like the old joke, you can always tell that White House spokesmen are lying because their mouths move.

What else could Maliki do? Someone in the White House who leaked the memo to the NYTimes is trying to sabotage Bush, and it's working.
