"I'm less interested in passing out blame than in learning and correcting mistakes. The buck stops with me." - President Barack ObamaSuch a sharp contrast with the CYA-era of Bush. Condi Rice never imagining planes being used as missile? Never briefed? Such dishonesty. It took an act of Congress to establish the 9/11 Commission. And even then, Bush would not appear without Vice President Dick Cheney. Sucks we gave them all a free pass after so many of their disasterous mistakes.
Could you imagine Obama saying he needs Joe Biden by his side before he talks? Would Republicans use a double standard to attack? You betcha.
Just a reminder, Bush, in his own words, made no mistakes:
