    @John Anderson

    John Anderson: "I'm all for explaining the Republican policy failures to anyone who will listen...but it's dangerous to make everything about Bush."

    Who is making everything about Bush? Joan Walsh's editorial is a response to an interview with Bush, so he is the subject of the thread. I don't think it means people consider him solely responsible for things. Far from it. That said, remember: He's the decider!
