From the NYT:

But the president did personally telephone Mr. Gore to extend the invitation, and the White House changed the date of the event so Mr. Gore could attend. Mr. Bush’s press secretary, Dana Perino, told reporters the president is willing to let bygones be bygones.

“This president does not harbor any resentments,” she said. “He never has.”

Translation: The President isn’t upset Mr. Gore didn’t just let him be President.

Talk about an asshole – and his little parrot, Dana Perino, for going out and saying such a thing. Bush makes Manson look sane.
