Sept. 16, 2005 - You can tell that Karl Rove is back in the game after
a bout with kidney stones that landed him in the hospital during the
height of Hurricane Katrina. Rove's absence explains in part
President Bush's curious aloofness in the face of looming disaster.
Returning to the Gulf Coast on Thursday for a fourth visit, Bush is
trying to make up for the lapses that tarnished his image as a leader
and to repackage himself as a visionary for the next phase, a
rebuilding effort that will dwarf Iraq's reconstruction and likely make
Halliburton even richer.
