Bush’s Narrative
June 10th, 2008For people interested in how history will chronicle George W. Bush’s life, today might be a day credited as the beginning of a public transformation of the President from no-regrets warrior to a man who regrets his rhetoric and the perceptions people have of him around the world. I think the ascension of John McCain to “Republican Party electoral leader” is the first event to illustrate to Bush that his time is nearing an end, and it appears that he’s got his legacy in mind now as his term winds down and he gets to work on diplomatic matters with Iran and Palestine. It’s interesting how much his personal tone has softened of late, and how reflective he has been. I just wonder if he ever thinks the war was a mistake.
