The Oaf's idea of addressing the Abu Ghraib disaster

The president went on al-Arabibiya and al-Hurra but refused to do an interview with al-Jazeera. Inevitably, this fit of pique limited the impact of his message, since al-Jazeerah is the leading satellite television channel. Since Bush did not apologize, did not take responsibility, did not make anyone else take responsibility, and just talked in a vague way about investigations, I doubt his message will resonate. Even pro-American Adnan Pachachi, who tried to put the best face on the matter, said that an apology would have been helpful.
