(White House photo)President Bush used his latest visit to West Virginia to urge Congress "to quickly pass an economic stimulus package void of extraneous spending, saying only quick action will kickstart the sputtering economy," The Associated Press reports.
Bush spoke at the latest Republican congressional retreat hosted by The Greenbrier. Correcting an earlier post, Friday marked at least the 22nd trip to the Mountain State by the president and his fourth to the posh resort.
Previous Greenbrier stops were also to headline GOP congressional retreats, including in 2003 and 2005.
Local coverage includes a story by The Register-Herald of Beckley as well as video from WVNS-TV and audio from MetroNews.
