Baker and Hamilton to brief president on Iraq Study Group's findings
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Iraq Study Group Chairmen James Baker and Lee Hamilton will brief President Bush next Wednesday morning on their findings, two officials close to the Iraq Study Group told CNN Wednesday.

The meeting with the president will be followed by a briefing of congressional leaders of both parties.

Other officials who have been privy to the Baker-Hamilton meetings told CNN that published reports suggesting deep divisions on the commission are off the mark.

One official said he was "struck by the fact there did not seem to be two different sides" between the Democrats and Republicans on the study group.

Former Secretary of State James Baker is a Republican while former Rep. Lee Hamilton is a Democrat.

"They seemed to be working together -- a bipartisan spirit," the official said.
