K. I think bush is going to want to cram as many presidential duties as he possibly can until then. That will probably include going to iraq.

Bush Arrives in Iraq on Surprise Farewell Visit
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2008/12/14/bush-arrives-iraq-surprise-farewell-visit/

President George W. Bush on Sunday made a farewell visit to Iraq, a place that defines his presidency, just 37 days before he hands the war off to a successor who has pledged to end it.

Air Force One, Bush's distinctive powder blue-and-white jetliner, landed at Baghdad International Airport in the afternoon local time, after a secretive Saturday night departure from Washington and an 11-hour flight.

Aiming to celebrate a new security pact between Washington and Baghdad, the president planned meetings with top U.S. officials stationed in Iraq as well as with Iraqi leaders.
It was Bush's fourth visit to the war zone as president and his last before President-elect Barack Obama takes office Jan. 20. Bush's most recent Iraq stop was over 15 months ago, in September 2007.


God bless President Bush!
