An Oral History of the Bush White House

What with history being made today, I thought I would take the opportunity to share an article that provides insight into the recent administration’s two terms of office.

In the article Farewell to All That, Vanity Fair recounts the past eight years of our government’s legislative branch as told through excerpts from interviews with those close to the events.

At 14 paginated screens, it’s well worth the read:

The threat of 9/11 ignored. The threat of Iraq hyped and manipulated. Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib. Hurricane Katrina. The shredding of civil liberties. The rise of Iran. Global warming. Economic disaster. How did one two-term presidency go so wrong? A sweeping draft of history—distilled from scores of interviews—offers fresh insight into the roles of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and other key players.
