I have more respect for someone that can see the error of his ways and make needed changes. What I see in Bush is stubborn obstinance, or a blind adhering to the spoiled philosophy that has led him down this deadend path to defeat. If he would just admit he was wrong and that the oil companies should have made their own deals with Iraq without the US military forcing the agenda, maybe he could salvage his legacy. otherwise, in the long arm of history, he will be lauded as the worst president in US history, sorry Sonny.
