But there were definitely people around him trying to influence what he did to a significant degree, like Liddy, Cheney, and several others. Likewise, there were people who weren't quite so sucked into the whole groupthink, like Colin Powell. But in the end they misled him too and he regrets putting his stamp of approval on the invasion. At least he can admit he was wrong, which is much more than I can say about a lot of people who were in the White House. |
Yeah... I imagine Bush will never admit he was wrong there... unless Iraq collapses.
I mean at the end of the day. Despite all the massive screwups they made. Iraq is better off... and will be better off then it was.
He always has that to fall back on... ignoring the fact that if the goal was "make somewhere crappy a better place by military force" there were tons of targets that made more sense.
