President Bush announced today that he would leave the Bush White House, effective August 30. He cited his desire to spend more time with his family. At a tearful event in the White House Rose Garden, Bush told reporters, "If Karl can leave, why shouldn't I be able to?" Shaking his head, he added, "This was all Karl's idea." Bush said he would remain a consultant to White House chief of staff Josh Bolten, "as my times permit." Bolten was not available for comment.
