The Bush-Cheney Economy
“Very little, and not only is it the case that he (Obama) is deconstructing that framework in only symbolic and inconsequential ways but he’s doing the reverse. Which is, he is finding new and often more effective ways to embrace many of those same instruments and to institutionalize them further.”
Glenn Greenwald answers Bill Moyers question regarding Obama’s war on terrorism policy compared to Bush/Cheney. Moyers asked:
…to what extent has President Obama begun to deconstruct that extra legal apparatus, the excessive secrecy, the use of a extra constitutional means of interrogation. To what extent is he undoing the infrastructure of excessive governmental claims that you wrote about those last eight (Bush) years?

Bush and Clinton joke, shared a stage in Toronto on Friday to discuss global affairs
Bush had discovered the challenges of cleaning up after pets as he walked the family dog, Barney, around their Dallas neighborhood.
“There I was, the former president, with a plastic bag on my hand, picking up that which I had dodged for eight solid years,” Bush said to laughs from the 6,000-strong audience.
Bush said he had phoned his mother to tell her about the event and she responded that Clinton had been spending so much time with his father, former President George H.W. Bush, in charity efforts that Clinton was “like my son.”
Turning to Clinton, Bush joked, “So brother, it is good to be with you.”
Former President George W. Bush. In his largest domestic speech since leaving the White House in January, Bush spoke to an audience in southwestern Michigan.
