You, carefully it seems, avoid the points raised by this article.

My initial reaction to the article was the fact a non-conservative organization was telling conservatives what they should think or do.

As far as Bush, don't have an opinion one way or the other at this point because I haven't seen any convincing evidence yet he knowingly mislead the public. The only thing I wish he would do is close them borders.

Nor have I, and I am doubtful he did so. But, as the article says, that is not the point.

The point is not that the administration is necessarily guilty of misbehavior, but that it should be forced to defend its decisionmaking process.

If they made bad judgements, or made errors, it should be examined. I don't need to know the details of how decisions were made, but we ought to have some confidence it is less likely to happen again. Just saying, "Opps, sorry, we'll do better next time" is not enough when we are talking about Americans dying in combat.
