Bush chides Iraqi soldiers for lack of initiative...
Apparently Iraqis need a push, whereas Bush just went AWOL on his own:

"Some Iraqi units have performed better than others," he told thousands of camouflage-clad Marines at Camp Pendleton, California. "Some Iraqis have been intimidated enough by the insurgents to leave the service to their country."

Cause aren't we sort of depending on them to be able to take over so we can leave? Of course maybe that's the point.
