Bush's formula for failure: Do not establish a "war room" to deal with opponents of your policies. Do not, whatever you do, defend yourself against charges that you are a blithering idiot, a liar, a dunce, and a virtual war criminal. Do not, under any circumstances, do anything to stop treasonous leaks to the media from State, Defense, and Justice sources. Forevermore, do not take your case to the American people that there are cynics, liars, crooks and worse in the government that will do anything imaginable to weaken your administration and the defense of the nation as a whole.
Here is truly an instance that we can clearly state that "It is Bush's fault."
Spot on...sums it up nicely.
Yes. Unfortunately.
