I've said it before and I'll say it again.
I don't think it's fair to blame Bush for this. I think it was a military planning mistake. I suppose you could argue that Bush is responsible due to the complete lack of any real planning, but that's a bit of a jump. If more troops were available, this might have been averted.
But it certainly was a screw-up and if anyone is directly responsible it was the miliary commanders on the ground.
Just my opinion.
