Bush's Turning Point: Finally Fighting

I think we will look back at the last 2 weeks and discover that this was a turning point for President Bush. First, the appointments of Ben Bernanke and Sam Alito. Today Bush slammed Democrats and the media who are trying to re-write history about the events leading up to the Iraq War.

"Some Democrats and anti-war critics are now claiming we manipulated the intelligence and mislead the American people about why we went to war," Bush said.

"More than 100 Democrats in the House and the Senate who had access to the same intelligence voted to support removing Saddam Hussein from power," Bush said.

I don't know why it has taken Bush so long to come out and fight back with the truth to counter the MSM. Still, it's better late than never. Bush has always been a President who has tried not to answer his critics. Let's hope this is the beginning of a real fight to set things straight - the facts are on his side - he just needs to explain them to average Americans.

*Update*
Bill Kristol has a great article about why it's important for Bush to answer his opponents' lies that seem to now be accepted by the public as truth.
