Bush's Growing Accountability Problem
I've been patient with the administration on Iraq, but the prison abuse scandal is pushing me over the edge. I don't think we should turn tail and run mind you, rather I have a growing problem with accountability within the Bush Administration. First, our intelligence agencies miss important clues before the 9/11 attacks (and no-one looses their job), then we START a war over WMD in Iraq, only to find no WMD (again, Tennet still has his job). But its not only Iraq, NASA blows up a second space shuttle (pretty much for the same reasons we lost the first) and O'Keefe not only keeps his job, he gets MORE funding. Now Rummy and the prison abuse scandal. It's going to be death by 1,000 paper cuts for Bush, more on this soon.

Broson,
Thanks for the posting. Don't write me off yet, I'm working on a larger posting on this very issue. To me its not just the Rummy affair but a whole host of other issues, 9/11, NASA, Out of Control spending, etc. that I think may be building a larger credibility problem for W. I hope my piece can outline these thoughts in a coherent manner. As far as seeking wisdom form any Ann Coulter Column, forget it she's just the flip side to Micheal Moore, too prone to hyperbole for my tastes.
Anyway, I think you views will be an interesting dynamic as we both have common ideological roots, but a differnt take on events.
Also, as a former law student, good luck with your classes!
