6. Was it controlled? That press conference

I remember reporters grilling the press secretary, especially later but post 2003 it was very rare to see Bush give a press conference. I remember he never gave one and the first one -- I was looking forward to seeing one turned out to be a ridiculous spectacle -- don't know if it was the Gannon one but definitely the first one in months or years.

On edit -- Wow, Bush told the truth with that answer. He hit the nail on the head, he hesitated but he answered it honestly. That is exactly what the Iran sanctions are about, because they nationalize oil production and the sanctions are designed to hurt them economically so they transitioned to renewable energy where 80% so the nuke scare is over stopping their nuclear energy making them more dependent on the natural gas but if Iran gave away the oil fields to the multinationals they'd be fine. Though the last part of what he says was mostly bullshit because it has more to do with our financial interests.
