Sad that Bush didn’t crush them either. Aside from the press piling on him like a whole defensive line on an undersized running back, he should have pressed forward; but I am not sure that he had the will.

I think there’s truth to the idea Bush wasn’t aggressive enough. At least he had the common sense to allow his general on the ground to change things up and bring the campaign back from the brink. That’s where I credit Bush.

That and his refusal to simply hand Iraq to the terrorists, I think Bush did a decent job. The rules of engagement is where I fault him and Obama.

Obama’s rules of engagement seem to be terrible. I believe some of Bush’s were too, but I may be wrong on that.
