Bush never wrong?

In recent days, my perusal of the right wing blogs has pressed home an important point.
To them, Bush can do no wrong.
From Blogs for Bush, on the Dubai decision:
"Some of our liberal and leftwing friends here on Blogs for Bush have absurdly claimed that it was all President Bush's fault. The idea here is that since President Bush has been running on anti-Arab hatred for five years, he has no one but himself to blame for the American people turning against the DPW deal. This is silly - indeed, one complaint that many conservatives have with President Bush is that he's been too solicitous of Arab sensibilities since 9/11."
- on the Abramoff scandal:
"Lost in all of the rhetoric about Abramoff is the fact that his lobbying and donation activities were all perfectly legal - where he broke the law was in his dealings with his clients. Unfortunately, in the Democrats desire to campaign on anything other than what they believe, we get attempted smears of GOPers who have done nothing wrong."
- on stopping leaks from within the administration:
"We must stop un-elected bureaucrats selectively leaking information to undermine Administration policy. The honorable thing for any disgrunted bureaucrat to do is to resign and go public with their dissent from Administration policy - but they don't want to give up their jobs. They want to stop things, but they don't want to put themselves at risk...so, they leak it to the press, who then shield them from the prosecution they deserve for illegally releasing information. Time to add the element of risk - secretly leak information that you shouldn't, go to jail. "
- on the Katrina video:
"Ah, well - I guess it doesn't matter. The primary failure was Nagin, the secondary failure was Blanco - and the one government official who acted correctly upon the information at any given time was President Bush. "

So, no matter what he does, it's either a plot by the MSM/Democrats, or someone else's fault, or no big deal.
I swear, the man could nuke Atlanta, and the Right would make it sound like Atlanta had it coming!
Is it that difficult to see, to admit, that he's occasionally wrong?
