President Bush is going soft.
He hasn't really made any mistakes in Iraq. He chose to fight a war in Iraq with the fewest number of US troops in deference to the Iraqi's and their sovereignity, and he has tried to fight a merciful war. (We could easily have nuked or carpet bombed the cities of our choice at any point in the war and we chose the long difficult process of turning our marines and soldiers into police and crowd control.)
Bush made a big mistake on the southern border by not assigning several thousand National Guard immediately after 9-11, since that's most likely how some of the members of the Tuscon, AZ terror cell got in. He chose to use technology, such as NSA surveillance and blocking finances so that our freedom of movement wouldn't be hindered. This demonstrates that he respects those Mexicans who illegally cross our southern border for no other reason than to work for their families.
He has done an AWESOME job with our economy.
He made the right move declaring southern states a disaster zone 2 days before Hurricane Katrina hit.
He has helped the US Congress spend money like drunken sailors, but on the other hand, the federal government has a lot more money to spend, and our budget shortfall has been shrinking despite our shopping habits, thanks to the tax cuts.
Speaking of tax cuts, they weren't for the rich, as you hear in the news. All Americans benefitted, and the lower and middle classes got the lion's share both in types of cuts and in weight of benefits. (Service members enjoy those plus the benefit of being tax free when entering hazard zones.)
All things considered, Bush Jr. will be remembered as a very good president and one of the most unnecessarily beleagured.

Im not sure. He does not have the time to admit all of his mistakes. A human being only lives on average 80 years.

The President realizes that Winning the Initial War wasn't enough, they needed to determine how they would Win the Peace.

It requires a certain amount of intestinal fortitude to admit ones mistakes, I truly doubt you'll see any apologies soon from this little man....

None directly, that I know of. Although with the Report on Iraq, he was intuitive with the panel.

The most important ones , that he needs to admit to were not mistakes, but criminal acts, and need to be addressed by impeachment
