Webb and Bush clash over Iraq at White House
Sen elect Jim Webb, a critic of the Bush Iraq policy, dodged the White House receiving line and declined a photo with President Bush, then traded terse remarks about Webb’s son serving in Iraq. The exchange recalls a 1968 moment involving Eartha Kitt at the White House and Lady Bird Johnson, underscoring how civility and public behavior at the presidency attract scrutiny. Webb’s stance and private nature keep the incident in political commentary.
