The buck stops where?

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

    Thanks, Joan

    Somebody call a WAHmbulance: other people messed up Georgie's presidency. So sad for him.

    My favorite part is "…but I wish the intelligence had been different, I guess."

    He guesses?

    He wasn't prepared for a war that has killed thousands, wounded thousands more --- and continues to do both --- and he guesses that he wishes the intelligence had been different?!

    A couple more questions, then I'll go:

    Is English this guy's first language?

    and

    Is it possible for him to give less of a shit?
