I will go along with the hypocrisy angle to the extent that Bushies will go along with the idea that a precedent has been set, and that by never questioning or limiting anything Bush wanted to do, they helped enable the power grab that they so bitterly regret now.
The "precedent" has been building for years thanks to several administrations.
It's OK now .. Obama and Pelosi are running things ... I feel so much better 
It's really big of You Gramps to acknowledge a republicans administrations faults .. when are you going to wake up and acknowledge the to the current bunch of thieves and lackies in DC are doing the same if not worse?

This is hardly surprising. Obama has been paying lip service to issues for a long while now (even before he was elected to the Presidency).
