TIME Magazine declared President Bush "Person of the Year" for 2004. Asked on ABC's "This Week" how Bush reacted when he learned · of Time's decision, White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card said the president was "not worried about what pundits might be saying," Card praised Bush as a "great liberator" for the people of Afghanistan and Iraq and lauded Bush's tax cuts, ed ucation and Medicare reform packages and plans to remake Social Security. ''So l think he 's got the right ingredients to be recogni zed as the Person of the Year," Card said. Kelly said other candidates included Michael Moore and Mel Gibson •. "because in different ways their movies tapped in to deep cultural streams," and political strategist Rove, who is widely credited with engineering Bush's win. Kelly said choosing Rove alone would have taken away from the credit he said Bush deserves.

"G))(aceJ t~ ~ .( 5 f/rnng~ f@ JP"" WASHINGTON The Senate's top two Republicans voiced su pport for Donald Rumsfeld on Friday as allies of the defense secretary sought to outflank increasingly vocal GOP critics in and out of Congress. "I am confident that Secretary Rumsfeld is fully capable of leading the Department of Defense and our military forces to victory in Iraq and the war on terror,'' Majority Leader Bill Frist. R-Tenn.. said in a written statement. "Most importantly he has the confidence of his commanders , in the field and our commander in chief." Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the GOP whip, said Rumsfeld "is an excellent secretary of defense and we are fortunate to have a man of his courage and vision serving the president at this critical time:" Frist and McConnell came to Rumsfeld 's defense arter several days of GOP criticism aimed at the man who has steereu the Pentagon during the Iraq war :md its messy aftermath. More than I JOO American troops have died since the U.S.-led invasion or Iraq began in 2003. None of Rumsfeld's congreS>ional GOP critics has yet called for his ouster. Still , th ey have grown increasing ly outspoken in recent day,, less than two weeks after White House disclosed that the president wanted the defe1he secretary to remain in his po>t into a second term.

Rumsfeld, who has lost the confidence of some GOP tawmakers over the conduct of the war. at the Pentagon in the next year or so. Sen. Susan Collins, RMaine, released a letter to Rumsfeld asking why the Army had not moved more aggressively to produce ful_ly armored Humvees for the troops in Iraq _ an issue she sa id she had raised at a -hearing nine months ago. " I don't like the way he has done some things . I think they ha ve been irresponsible,'' said Sen. Chuck Hagel of Ne braska . The Vietnam veteran's list of all eged military' offenses was,'' ·long one : "We didn ' t go into Iraq with enough troops. He's dismissed his general olficers. He\ dismissed all outside influence. · He's dismis.sed outside CllllllSel anu advice. And he 's dismissed a lot of inside counsel and advice from men and women who have been in military uni form for 25 and 30 years.'' Sen. Johrl McCain of Arimna said he had "no confiuencc" 111 the defense secretary. although he <~clded that BLtsh "can have th e team that he wants around him." In the face of GOP critiCISm. White House spokesman Scott McClellan has been issuing declarations of presidential support on a regular basis. "Secretarv Rumsfeld IS doing a great job leaJi ng our efforts at th e Department of Defense to win the war on terrorism and to help bring ab0ut a free and peaceful Iraq.'' he said on Friday. "And he 's instrumental in our efforts <.luring this time of war we are in." Other than Frist and McConnell, David Keene of . the American Conservative Union issued a statement of support during ' the day. He said much of the GOP critic'ism was· "peuy, coming from some who do . not care for the secretary's blunt., plain-speaking style. ... It's also true that much of the criticism is really intended fo r President Bush but aimed at Rum sfeld." In contrast to th e presidential campaign, when Sen. John Kerry and other Democrats routinely call ed for Rumsfeld's ouster, much of the recent critic ism has come from Republicans. In part -that reflects the fact that the election is over and the president safe· ly re-elected. It abo stems from grievances nursed privately by lawmakers who feel Rumsfeld has nut treated them with the deference they expect. GOP aides say.

Ruthven can't remember a time when he didn't want to draw and paint wildlife. He abo dreamed of seeing as much of the world as possible while capturing the wildlife and nature he loves on canvas. "I would lie in bed at night and hear the whistles of the trains and steam boats and long to be on them. and I spent hours roaming the fields and woods," Ruth"en said. As an 18-year-old sailor aboard a U.S. Navy destroyer in World War II , he visited foreign ports and drew cartoons for shipmates. "I might have ended up a commercial cartoonist doing wildlife art on the side, if I had just had a more creative mind," Ruthven said.

Now in the 21st century, Ruthven was in the White House receiving a national medal for his own work as a wildlife artist and naturalist. " It was the crowmng moment for what I have tried to accomplish with my work,'' Ruthven said of the National Medal of Arts he received last month from President Bush. The 80-year-old artist often referred to by peers and fans as a "20th century Audubon" has an unass umin g demeanor that doesn't hint at his array of experience .. He said he might have turned out as a cartoonist. He began his art career illustrating containers of Play -Doh. His Redhead Ducks paint ing, selected as the 1960 winner of the federal Duck Stamp competition. started a wildlife art career that has earned the respect of fellow artists and world leaders. His work has been exhibited from the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History to the Smithsonian Institution's Conservation and Research Center. Ruthven has done paintings for foreign heads of state. the U.S. government and major corporations. His studio in the 19th century farmhouse he shares with his wife, Judy, in this rural southwest Ohio community features photos of him with three form er U.S. presidents who co-signed some of his original paintings. In addition to the White House, his wprk has been displayed in the Hermitage Museum in Russia and the President's Palace in the Philippines.

The end zone was 62 yards away. All Takeo Spikes had to do was make the catch and leave the Bengals behind one more time. They couldn't keep him, and they weren' t going to catch him. The Buffalo Bills linebacker made a storybook catch-and-run on Sunday, returning an interception for a pivotal touchdown in a 33-17 victory over the team he left for better days - days just like this one. ''I've never been in a position this late in December to have somethi ng to play for other than pride," said Spikes. who spent his first live seasons in Cincinnati. "That's very big to me. I care about coming back home to where it tirst started. but at the same time. the playoffs outweigh this far more than anything else.' ' Buffalo (8-6) bolstered its playoff chances with its tifth straight win, a sol id all-around performance. Jason Peters blocked a punt and recovered the ball in the end zone for a score, and Spikes and the defense ruined Jon Kitna's latest comeback. Kitna, tilling in for the injured Carson Palmer. threw two interceptions and fumbled a snap, dooming the Bengals (6-8) to their 14th consecutive season without a winning record - one of the longest streaks of futility in NFL history. "It means we're not as far along as I hoped we would be," said coach Marvin Lewis, in his second year trying to rebuild the forlorn fran chise. "We got off to a good start and then let them back in. and then we imploded from there.'' Spikes was the first player to abandon ship after Lewis arrived, looking to get re-energized and make the playoffs somewhere1 else. He made the play that kept the Bills headed that way. Under heavy pressure early in the second quarter. Kitna threw a pass directly to Spike s, who ran untouched to the end zone. tired the ball off the facin g of the stands an.P screamed to the fans who had cheered him during those inglorious years in Cincinnati. Spikes was the last player off the tield, waving his ri ght fist and slapping hands with several dozen Bill s fans in the corner of the same end zone where he returned· the interception. "He's in a zone right now," coach Mike Mularkey said. " I actually wanted to stay out of his ·way on the sideline. To come up with the plays he did today doesn't surprise me." Since an 0-4 start, Buffalo has won eight of 10 to climb into contention . The Bills have scored at least 33 points while winning each of their last five· games. their best such streak since 1998. And a defense that held Cleveland to only 26 yards a week earlier had its way with the Bengals' backup quarterback. Kitna was the NFL's Comeback Player of the Year last season, but became Palmer' s backup last March. Kitna hadn't taken a snap until last week, when Palmer 'prained his left knee in New England. Kitna expected to be back in form after a week of practice, but had all sorts of problems. He fumbled twice, was intercepted twice, was sacked three times and went 16-of-32 for 151 yards with a late touchdown against soft coverage. " It was kind of a crazy game," Kitna said. "Everything seemed to go their way." The Bills offense didn't have to do much. Drew Bledsoe was 15-of-30 for 183 yards. including a 5-yard touchdown pass to Lee Evans . Willis McGahee ran for only 25 yards ori' II carries. and left for the last few minutes of the first half after landing awkwardly on a catch and twisting his rebuilt left knee. He returned for the start of the second half, but sat out the fourth quarter as a precaution with the game in hand. Only a few thousand fans stuck arou nd on a windy. frigid afternoon to watch anot her Bengals season end badly. Since the All-America Football Conference merged with the NFL for the 1950 season. only one team has had a longer streak of futility than the Bengals. New Orleans failed to post a winning record in its first 20 seasons. Cincinnati and Tampa Bay are tied for the second-longest streak AP at 14 years. Cincinnati Bengals running back Rudi Johnson (32) tumbles the ball as he is "I feel for a lot of the guys who were there with me,'' Spikes said. tackled by Buffalo Bills safety Lawyer MiJioy (36) in the second half Sunday in Cincinnati. Buffalo recovered the tumble, and won the game 33-17. "It's tough, man . It's tough."
