Bush pretends he is calling for investigation....
Once he found out it was going to be investigated with or without him, he beats Lieberman and Collins to the punch, and pretends it is his idea. If it was left to him, nothing would ever be investigated. But this is a good example of how this WH works and they try to stay in front of the story, or in this case, the investigation. But, make no mistake, this is not Bush's idea.

1. This should be an independent investigation. That means idiot
boy should be answering the questions not asking them.

3. feeble attempt to control the image
This reminds me of the old adage that if you're being run out of town by an angry mob, grab a baton and pretend you're leading a parade.

5. Sorry, but Reid and Hillary beat him to it.
They were calling for an investigation before it was cool.

7. He's got nothing to worry about.
If Lieberman is the "bi-partisan" credential, the investigation may as well be run by the RNC.

8. I HATE it when he says "what went right, and what went wrong."
