Nelson defies Bush, enlists Syria's help

WASHINGTON -- Syrian President Bashar Assad told Sen. Bill Nelson on Wednesday that he was willing to cooperate with the U.S. to control the porous border between Syria and Iraq used by insurgents.
The one-hour meeting in Damascus, which State Department officials had opposed, was the first between a high-level American official and Assad since a bipartisan panel suggested that the U.S. work with Syria and Iran to curb bloodshed in Iraq.
