"There has to be more to it... nobody could be that much of an idiot."

I think you're wrong. Bush really believed all the seasoned, older hands that told him it would be a cakewalk and being a "war President" would give him overwhelming approval. That sucked him in.

But it wasn't a cakewalk, the approval has turned, and now his massive ego and hubris won't let him get out. Just like Lyndon Johnson and Vietnam. Johnson wasn't an idiot either. Ego and hubris can make any man into an idiot.
