Bush's coming battle with the ISG?

Timeline: Top Whitehouse staff meets with the ISG on Monday probably getting some indication of the panel's current leanings. On Tuesday,

President Bush formally launched a sweeping internal review of Iraq policy..., pulling together studies underway by various government agencies, according to U.S. officials.....

The two reviews are not competitive, administration officials said, although the White House wants to complete the process before mid-December, about the time the Iraq Study Group's final report is expected.

This is completely independent from the ISG, so either, Bush is exploring whether the ISG's plan will work, or he is looking for ammunition with which to fight off their recommendations.

Also in the WaPo, don't miss the revelation that there is a signed Bush order to the CIA "governing aggressive interrogation and detention policies."

So, if retroactive immunity is not held up in court, we now know there is concrete evidence.
