Some great LTEs from NYT here on Bush's "responsibility"
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/15/opinion/l15bush.html?ex=1127448000&en=e405330c31be65f9&ei=5070

George W. Bush, the man who has steadfastly refused to acknowledge his complicity in the falsehoods and failures of the past five years, appears to be growing up a bit. Admitting responsibility is a good start; it will be more convincing if he changes the policies that contributed to this disaster.

Let's see him match "I'm responsible" with "never again."
