I could probably go on endlessly about Bush's odd interview with NBC's Brian Williams, but instead I'm going to limit myself to one short segment:

WILLIAMS: The folks who say you should have asked for some sort of sacrifice from all of us after 9/11, do they have a case looking back on it?

BUSH: Americans are sacrificing. I mean, we are. You know, we pay a lot of taxes. America sacrificed when they, you know, when the economy went into the tank. Americans sacrificed when, you know, air travel was disrupted. American taxpayers have paid a lot to help this nation recover. I think Americans have sacrificed.

In Bush's mind, national sacrifice in a time of war is tax cuts and airport lines. That, in a nutshell, is everything that is wrong with this administration.
