Premise: In other words, on a day when George Bush was supposedly distancing himself from conservative Republicans, he was actually caving to their foolish dogma on the issue at the center of campaign--over the objection of his two top advisors on the subject.

Hypothesis: George Bush went against his advisors and instead of disagreeing with Republicans as he stated, he ended up agreeing with their foolish ideas and his approval rating suffered for it. 
Relation: neutral
