Reuter staffer follows Bush in Iraq

It was supposed to be a quiet weekend in Washington (…). I had just put on my mountain biking shoes, ready to clip into the pedals for a ride around the forest near Andrews Air Force base outside Washington, when I got THE CALL. It was a White House staffer, asking that we meet in three hours at a secret location known only to Reuters correspondent Matt Spetalnick and I, where we were to be told details of a special secret visit by U.S. President Bush to Iraq.
