Thats awfully big of him.

<snip>The one regretful note he struck after nearly six years as defence secretary was about the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, saying that the day he found out about the abuse of inmates at the military-run jail was his worst day on the job.

Otherwise, however, he kept to the firmly upbeat rhetoric that characterised his time at the Pentagon. "We have every chance in the world of succeeding in both those countries, but only if we have the patience and only if we have the staying power," he told Pentagon employees at a valedictory event yesterday.
