BREAKING: BUSH ADMITS RESPONSIBILITY

I guess desperate poll numbers call for drastic measures:

Katrina exposed serious problems in our response capability at all levels of government and to the extent the federal government didn’t fully do its job right, I take responsibility,” Bush said during a joint news conference with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani.
Bush said he wants to know what went right and what went wrong so that he can determine whether the United States was prepared for another storm, or an attack.
“I’m not going to defend the process going in, but I am going to defend the people who are on the front line of saving lives,” Bush said.

It’s not just the process that’s at issue here; it’s also the people. I haven’t heard any reporters asking Bush tough questions about what made “Brownie” qualified to run FEMA.
Anyway, as AMERICAblog points out, only in this administration would a straightforward recognition of responsibility be considered “breaking news.”
