"Tuesday's Washington Post front page was dominated by a banner headline stretching across all but one column, and proclaiming that "Bush Acknowledges Impact of Insurgents." That's a reference to the president's Monday's press conference, where he said, "But no question about it. The bombers are having an effect. You know, these people are targeting innocent Iraqis. They're trying to shake the will of the Iraqi people and, frankly, trying to shake the will of the American people.""
