As his presidency nears its end, a reflective President Bush suggested Tuesday he regrets some of his more blunt statements on the war on terror over the last eight years.

"I regret saying some things I shouldn't have said," Bush told CNN's Heidi Collins Twhen asked to reflect on his regrets over his two terms as president. "Like 'Dead or Alive' and 'Bring 'em on.' My wife reminded me that, hey, as president of the United States be careful what you say."

(on why she called everyone "dahling"):

" Because all my life I've been terrible at remembering people's names. I once introduced a friend of mine as Martini. Her name was actually Olive."

I believe Bush intended to leave Iraq after the capture/death of Saddam Hussein. People clamored for more - to stop organized terror groups and so the situation was expanded using special forces, as part of a hit and run strategy, which was mainly successful. Then, John Kerry suggested winning the peace and ..... then the entended campaign in Bagdad arose.

I believe the democrats are responsble for the long protracted situation, and various groups took advantage and the situation stagnated with no clear goal in mind.

Still sucking up to the neocons I see. You can "believe" anything you like, but that doesn't make it true. Hell we still have people in this country that think Hitler was a great man!

Heh readers of my blog are still standing behind Dubya. What will it take to convince some people that he's the worst president in history?

Looks like we the common citizens were just not wealthy enough.

If we were wealthy enough we could have lobbied Congress, or gotten enough lawsuits in the Courts, to shackle the jerk. And to impeach him, and put him in jail long ago, as he certainly deserved in a law and justice abiding nation.

Reminds me of "Nurse Betty" where you have a major f-up and then your head gets zapped and you kind of live in lala land cause no matter what happened it didn't seem to bother him.

I can almost predict a plethora of books and news leaks within the next 5 years, there will be soo much dirt on the Bush Administration, that it's going to make everyone sick to their stomach. By the way, where has Cheney Been for the last year??

The books are already out there. The hard part is getting people to turn off their tvs and start
reading again.
