It's a column fat with details on just who got the U.S. into this mess and why it's well within Obama's right as Commander In Chief to not do what his predecessor did which was place more importance on being seen as "The Decider" of "Bold Decisions". Bush knew he would not have to clean up after himself - business as usual for him - so he didn't care what kind of mess he left for the next person to govern from the oval office.
