For the first time since the war began, the White House was struggling to remain in control of the agenda. Bush went before the cameras only hours after the televised congressional testimony of FBI whistle-blower Coleen Rowley, the Minneapolis agent who ripped the bureau's pre-9/11 bunglings in a letter...
