Bush finally wavers: too little, too late.
| quote: | "In an interview with ABC News, President Bush said that he was unprepared for war. "In other words, I didn't campaign and say, 'Please vote for me, I'll be able to handle an attack," he said. "In other words, I didn't anticipate war."
Bush blamed "incorrect intelligence" for his decision to invade Iraq, but declined to "speculate" on whether he would have invaded even if he'd known that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. Bush said, "That is a do-over that I can't do."
Bush also expressed regret that he was unable to reform U.S. immigration policy, saying, "I firmly believe that the immigration debate really didn't show the true nature of America as a welcoming society."

Can you believe the nerve of this guy?
NOW he says he wasn't ready and that the intelligence was wrong, after begging for a second chance to resolve the conflict and allegedly make us safer.
And don't even get me started on any exclamation of what a "welcoming society" he wanted to help foster, when he got that second re-election largely by making up a new hotbutton social division issue (Gay Marriage) through bullshit amendments to the federal constitution allowing discrimation and essentially second class citizenry.
What irks me the most is that he doesn't even care about any of the underhanded tactics he used to galvanize the Right, and appeal to moderates through fear and fleeting social stigma.
