Bush: Voters Ratified Iraq Policy

CBS/AP) President Bush says his re-election proves Americans agree with his decision to invade Iraq, and that as a result, there's no need to hold any administration officials accountable for mistakes made in planning for the war, or its aftermath.

"We had an accountability moment, and that's called the 2004 elections," Mr. Bush said in an interview with The Washington Post for Sunday's editions. "The American people listened to different assessments made about what was taking place in Iraq, and they looked at the two candidates, and chose me."

In the interview, conducted Friday aboard Air Force One, Mr. Bush set no schedule for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq and said he will not ask Congress to expand the size of the National Guard or regular Army. He urged Americans to be patient as Iraq moves toward creating a democratic nation in place of a dictatorship.




Well, thanks red-staters! Now he thinks - more than ever before - that there should be no accountability for anything that he does, no matter how horrendous! Wonderful!
