No, but according to the mediaWHORES he did and they are milking and twisting his words to accommodate their hatred and lies against him. Unfortunately the majority of the folk get their news from these PIGS! W left himself opened to attacks by even suggesting responsibility. Blanco, Mary and Nagins should have resigned instead of Brown!

Blanco stood up tonight and said she took full responsibility for whatever mistakes her state made. She also said that the people of Louisiana had a friend in President Bush. But you're right, the media likely won't cover that just as they chose to mangle the President's words.

Personally, from way up here in Michigan, I don't think this story has the shelf life that the Democrats and media initially thought. The 9/11 commission is just looking for relevance and would have spouted off no matter what...either to take credit or pass out blame.

I knew he screwed the pooch by taking ANY responsiblity. Now, they smell blood.

I posted on a thread last night...that my impression of what President Bush did yesterday by "taking responsibility"...

was like me, as a mother....who has a child that falls and breaks an arm while playing in their room....As a parent, I am responsible for that child, but as far as the broken arm is concerned...it wasn't my FAULT....

I think that is what he is saying..yes, as POTUS he is responsible...but when you have an idiot mayor and idiot governor...making decisions like THEY made...it isn't his FAULT.
