SOTU: Well, I've got to give Bush kudos for this one 

Here:

Right now, Americans in uniform are serving at posts across the world,
often taking great risks on my orders. We have given them training
and equipment; and they have given us an example of idealism and
character that makes every American proud.
(via Mr. "What embargo?" Black)

And then he went on to issue an executive order thanking the families who bought body armor for their children, and the chambers of commerce who bought armor for the Humvees, and reimbursing them.

Oh, wait a minute. He didn't do that, did he? Sorry. My bad. I take the kudos back.

NOTE And then, to add insult to injury (quite literally so):

Some of our servicemen and women have survived terrible injuries, and this grateful country will do everything we can to help them recover.

When it's the lack of armor that got them injured in the first place....

There really seems to be no limit to this man's self delusion and utter inability to take responsibility for his actions. In the immortal words of Thomas Pynchon, "'Scuse me, got to go vomit now."
