What I'm getting from all of this is that Bush seems to have a pattern of engaging in hastily thought out events with seemingly no one looking at the long-term consequences. Once those consequences come to pass, he distances himself from the event in a manner that says, "yeah, I was there, but it wasn't my idea, I didn't write the speech, and everything was done without my knowledge."
He seems to be a very compulsive person, which isn't a good trait for a leader of a nation.
