and left Washington. 9/11 is the defining date, and many of us believe that it wasn't just a random successful terrorist attack - but a LIHOP event (of some type). I didn't trust Bush Cheney et al at all. I knew Obama's job, should he choose to accept it, was to calm people and keep the capitalism going. I don't know about big conspiracies, but I do think there was more said behind the scenes than we will know in our lifetimes, that we were very lucky to have a peaceful transition of power in 2008, and that the torture reports we've seen are likely the tip of the iceberg.
