As President Harry S. Truman said,
"The buck stops here."

Comments:
President Bush does stretch the English language
much to the dismay of his supporters and the delight of his detractors.
He will probably be the most quoted President in History for many reasons.
One cliche is "Why don't you say what I mean?"
All in all,
I believe he has done well
in handling one of the most adverse events in history
to ever befall a new President.
However, the extraction may be as painful as Viet-nam or as permanent as Korea
if we are not extremely careful in supporting the move to independence for Iraq.
