and well said. As I watched Bush yesterday, I actually felt sorry for him. Maybe that's just how I am. But to see this man totally knocked off his feet and I agree with you: "he accepted only the best-case scenarios, the rosiest intelligence, and when the house of cards collapsed around him he was left scratching his head and wondering what went wrong."

When you let everyone do everything for you, it's hard to know what the hell is actually going on. This is Bush. He's always had poppy to bail him out. I just find it sad. Hell, when he was first approached about running for President, he and Karen Hughes laughed out loud.

Now like you, if the investigations reveal more, my sentiment might change, but for now I just feel sorry for him because I think it's got to be hard to face the fact that you were just used as a puppet--and it's hitting him in the face now.
