Evidently they requested a meeting with George Bush, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of State, Adviser Karl Rove, Press Secretary, and others.
The meeting took place for 75 minutes and Bush was exposed to the most candid and unvarnished conversation he has ever had with GOP members.
They informed him that the people within their confressional districts were prepared for political defeat in the 2008 elections.
They informed him that they no longer wanted to receive information about the war in Iraq from him because he has lost complete credibility.
They only trust General Patreus for accurate information about the war in Iraq.
Bush stated that he didn't want to hand the war over to the next president.
Bush said that he especially didn't want to hand it over to a Democratic President.
There will be more details about this serious meeting coming out within the next 24 hours, but it looks like many GOP members of Congress will be abandoning the Bush war policy.
