"The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow." -- Bill Clinton in 1998

Bush had participated in 25 news conferences from the beginning of this year through September, and fielded questions from reporters at 19 other sessions.

President Bush has been criticized for limiting his exposure to the press, but he is actually more accessible to reporters than are some of the leading candidates vying to replace him, including Hillary Clinton, according to one observer. Bush had participated in 25 news conferences from the beginning of this year through September, and fielded questions from reporters at 19 other sessions.
