Bush: "I don't feel abandoned" on Iraq

WASHINGTON, Jan 31 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said on Wednesday "I don't feel abandoned" by fellow Republicans in Congress who are working with Democrats to protest his Iraq policy with a congressional resolution.

...

"I don't feel abandoned," Bush told Fox News Channel's "Neil Cavuto." "And what do you expect? When times are good, there's millions of authors of the plan. When times are bad, there's one author, and that would be me."

...

Bush said he saw the comment as Specter wanting to make sure Congress was heard.

"They get to decide funding levels, for example. And my hope is of course that they would make sure our troops have what it takes to do the jobs that I've asked them to do. But you shouldn't be surprised that members of the legislative body want to have input," Bush said.

...

"I guess I could try to be popular. But I've always found that somebody who tries to be popular is one who may end up compromising principle, and I'm not that kind of person. I base decisions on principle. I'll change tactics, but I'm not going to change my principles and try to become, you know, momentarily popular," he said.
