More Bush than Bush

Will Inboden explains Obama/Bush or Bush/Obama:
The president of the United States makes almost unprecedented assertions of executive authority and launches a controversial war of choice in the Middle East, targeting for regime change a dictator accused of committing atrocities against his own citizens, producing weapons of mass destruction, and sponsoring international terrorism. Amid the White House's promises of a quick victory, a compliant Congress initially goes along with the war, but months later disgruntlement sets in and Capitol Hill begins to raise concerns.
