The buck stops where?

Our delusional president laments the "intelligence failure" that identified nonexistent WMD in Iraq and admits he was "unprepared" for war.

    I never notice what I am doing wrong, only what everyone else is doing wrong.

    It's crazy to think of some of the things I have done that I look back in horror at now. I think he is looking back at the last 8 years wondering how he let this happen. I bet that behind closed doors he was abused and ignored, puppet style, by cheney and rumsfield and didn't have the backbone to speak up for himself. I don't think he made many of the decisions he made. he's not that smart (?) or interested. he got in over his head. MAN-i got this job once that I totally didn't deserve-it was awful

    It's unfortunate for W that he will go down in history as the worst president ever. pay attention to his very public lesson: you wear your integrity on your sleeves. You might think you are fooling people, but you're not. i recognize that red nose and flushed cheeks! we might not know exactly whats going on but we know SOMETHING is going on. it's obvious from this angle.
