...rating remains above 70%, surveys consistently show that significant numbers of Americans believe he is too close to business and that their opinion of how he handles the economy is slipping. Bush plans a major speech on corporate responsibility on July 9. Sources tell TIME that top political adviser Karl Rove and deputy chief of staff Josh Bolten are pushing hard for proposals that go well beyond the President's earlier calls to hold executives more accountable for the accuracy of their balance sheets. One option under consideration: appointment of a special counsel within the Justice Department, in part because...

To Rove, the President's top political aide, it might just turn out to be the deal of the year. The story begins in Colorado, where Republican Senator Wayne Allard, who is running for re-election, got the Bush Administration to jump-start a plan to remove plutonium from a federal facility there and ship it to South Carolina, starting this month. That's good politics for Allard--but bad for Representative Lindsey Graham, who is running...
