Bush takes responsiblity for uranium inclusion

I have to be honest - I'm more than just a bit surprised by this - but Bush has actually taken personal responsiblity for including the line about Iraq's attempts to purchase uranium from Africa in the State of the Union address.

It was the president's most direct response to questions about how his January State of the Union speech included erroneous allegations about Iraqi attempts to buy uranium in Africa. "I take personal responsibility for everything I say, of course. Absolutely. I also take responsibility for making decisions on war and peace," he said.
I'm glad to finally hear that, but it sure took him long enough.

So our so-called POTUS is also responsible for how f*cked up things are between the US and North Korea, too? How reassuring that knowledge will be to know when the first North Korean-made nuclear weapon detonates on US-soil...[shudder]
