2. "by mistake"
is a little misleading. On purpose, with malicious intent, is more like it.

10. Bigger question?
Name one Bush success.Getting reelected,and that is the biggest success of all.Especially when he screwed every other thing he touched turned to shit.We can't seem to launch a debate that will bring him down.everytime one of the dems opens their mouth his poll numbers go up.Maybe we're not as smart as we think we are.It's very depressing.

11. Empowering Iran
It is the ultimate result to so many other blunders. In the end this is the one historians will cite when discussing the tragedy that was the Bush administration. An act of colossal stupidity.

14. The Iraq war is no mistake.
Neither was the exploding deficit, nor was making FEMA ineffective.

The WISDOM of doing these things in questionable.

15. I was just giving the Pres the benefit of the doubt
I think it's quite possible that Bush didn't lie to us, because he's such a complete fool. HIS intelligence agencies provided HIM with bad intelligence that HE interpreted incompetently, and HE used it to develop an incompetent strategy with which to fight terrorism. That said, more than likely, Bush is both incomopetent and dishonest.
