The media always portrays these scenarios as if they conclusively know everything that's top secret, but talking heads on CNN, MSNBC, FNC etc. do not know what presidents know. I always wonder what the conversation goes like when the incoming and outgoing presidents meet in private, and ride in the limo to the inauguration. It was telling that Obama, within weeks, took the same position as Bush on some of the critical terrorism matters like Afghanistan, Gitmo, etc. They know a lot more than we or the media ever could.

I liked it when, at GWB's presidential library dedication this year, Clinton told how often he and GWB would talk and debate like crazy by phone regularly, and there was obvious respect for each other. I hope they're all consulting with Obama on this terrible mess.
The horror and evil will come from us.

Because all presidents work for the same people, take the same orders.

"Meet the new boss...same as the old boss".
