President Bush on O'Reilly

I'm not a big fan of Bill O'Reilly, but the first part (of three) of his interview with President Bush is pretty good. He asks a couple of tough questions, and I think the President handles them well. (I only read the transcript, I didn't watch the show.) I'm looking forward to the other two parts when they come out. A key exchange:

O'REILLY: Would you allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon?

BUSH: We are working our hearts out so that they don't develop a nuclear weapon, and the best way to do so is to continue to keep international pressure on them.

O'REILLY: Is it conceivable that you would allow them to develop a nuclear weapon?

BUSH: No, we've made it clear, our position is that they won't have a nuclear weapon.

O'REILLY: Period.

BUSH: Yes.

There's more, and I don't agree with the President's position on illegal immigration (as an earlier post today makes obvious).

Update:
Wretchard has more on striking Iran's nuclear capabilities.
