Hell no, Rove has shown himself to be a master manipulator. Bush makes no appearances without everything he wears, everything he says, everything around him having a purpose and being calculated as being beneficial.
Hell, they had the aircraft carrier turn around specifically so San Diego wouldn't be in the background because being able to see the city would look bad for him.
That would have looked bad because the reason he gave for doing the viking jet stunt was because it was too far to fly a helicopter out to (at that time they were assuming the Abe Lincoln would be 300 miles out at sea, it turned out to be only 3-5 miles away).
That banner was their idea, and now that it became a political liability, Bush is trying to blame it on the sailors on that ship.
Bush never takes responsibility for anything.
