Bush Meets with Jewish Leaders
[Washington Post] Michael Abramowitz - President Bush held an unannounced meeting Thursday with the top leadership of the U.S. Jewish community to discuss the Middle East and other foreign policy issues. Bush meets with smaller groups of Jewish leaders from time to time, but this was the first time he had met with the entire leadership of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, about 50 heads of Jewish advocacy, service and religious organizations of different political orientations. Present for the session were Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, national security adviser Stephen J. Hadley, White House Chief of Staff Joshua B. Bolten and political adviser Karl Rove.
