The NY times once again calls for President Bush to come clean and admit his mistakes.

It's regrettable that this president is never going to admit any shortcomings, much less failure. That's an aspect of Mr. Bush's character that we have to live with.

An acknowledgment of past mistakes would be nice.

Perhaps they missed this: Bush Apologizes for Abuse of Prisoners

It's just that they want Bush to be sorry for every soldier killed, every car bomb and the 9/11 attacks and global warming.

Perhaps he is waiting for the Times to apologize for it's failure to report on the good things that are coming out of Iraq regarding the reconstruction, recreation of the wetlands, freedom for minorities, election of local councils, etc.
