I love how this is being twisted into President Bush admitting guilt for the faulty intelligence. You libs are chomping at the bit here.

The very first paragraph, not CNN's faulty summary in bold, clearly states what President Bush said.

"It is true that much of the intelligence turned out to be wrong," Bush said during his fourth and final speech before Thursday's vote for Iraq's parliament. "As president I am responsible for the decision to go into Iraq. And I'm also responsible for fixing what went wrong by reforming our intelligence capabilities. And we're doing just that."
President Bush is clearly acknowledging that much of the intelligence was wrong, but at the time everyone agreed it to be fact. President Bush is still owning up to the fact that it was his decision to go into Iraq based on that information, but this is nothing new. President Bush has always been clear it was his decision. He has also recognized that our intelligence was flawed and is trying to make the corrective steps necessary

Nowhere does it even hint that President Bush is taking reponsibility for the faulty intelligence as the title of this thread and the article falsely lead you to believe. Any responsible and intelligent person is able to clearly understand and grasp this.
