President Bush once spoke of ushering in a new "responsibility era" in Washington. Yet, after countless failures, misstakes, and missteps, he has yet to hold a single administration official responsible for anything. In fact, he elevates those who fail him (Condoleezza Rice, Alberto Gonzales) to positions where they can screw things up on a grander scale.
The only people he's canned are Paul O'Neill and General Eric Shinseki - who were pushed out because they weren't regurgitating the administration's talking points. And now we find out that no one was responsible for one of the biggest blunders in American history - Abu Ghraib. And once again, no one is held accountable. Too bad our "accountability moment" has passed.
