The big question is why the Bush Administration isn`t talking about this. Can`t understand?"
******

Could it be just a question of proper timing/election timing?

George W. Bush is known as a great poker player

*****

One final note on George W. Bush’s management style and his Harvard Business School background does not derive from the classroom, per se. One feature of life there is that a subculture of poker players exists. Poker is a natural fit with the inclinations, talents, and skills of many future entrepreneurs. A close reading of the odds, combined with the ability to out-psych the opposition, leads to capital accumulation in many fields, aside from the poker table.

By reputation, the President was a very avid and skillful poker player when he was an MBA student. One of the secrets of a successful poker player is to encourage your opponent to bet a lot of chips on a losing hand. This is a pattern of behavior one sees repeatedly in George W. Bush’s political career. He is not one to loudly proclaim his strengths at the beginning of a campaign. Instead, he bides his time, does not respond forcefully, at least at first, to critiques from his enemies, no matter how loud and annoying they get. If anything, this apparent passivity only goads them into making their case more emphatically.

2. Finally! We learn he's good at something.

It was reported during the campaign that he is an avid video game player.

So now we know why he is so uneducated about other stuff.

Mr. Multi Addict.

3. I'm so scared that Dubya's holding four aces when it comes to Saddam's WMD
It will surely be a disaster for us who have said otherwise when the administration presents these "aces" officially, rather than only floating them like the turds they are in the toilet bowl of their right wing media clowns.
