Bush didn't "accept responsibility" for jack shit.

[patcox2]

What he said was "as president its my responsibiity to make the decision to go to war." Thats not admitting a mistake or "accepting responsibility" in the sense of admitting personal fault for a failing, thats a fifth grade civics lecture. He is just describing one apsect of the power of the office of the presidency (as authorized by Congress, I know its debateable).

How, and why, this is being spun as any kind of admission of a mistake or "acceptance of responsibility" is completely beyond me.
