...After Robert Byrd broke the ice in a hearing Wednesday by questioning the war's price tag, Majority Leader Tom Daschle told reporters Thursday that the U.S. must add two more prisoners to its X-Ray pen - Mullah Omar and Osama bin Laden - "or we will have failed." Trent Lott, through his spokesman, was very upset; Bush, through his, played it cooler, with Ari Fleischer drily informing reporters Thursday that "individuals are free to focus on any one person if they think that's the best way to conduct foreign policy.
