He is gone yes. Did he leave a mess? Sure, every President leaves some problem for the next to deal with. That said, in my opinion, once Obama issued the Executive Order to close GITMO and end the military tribunals it becomes his problem to have a solution. Had he not done and that said "we are coming up with a plan" then so be it, blame Bush for the need to come up with a plan.

I have no doubt that he will have a whole host of new problems to deal with as well, every President does. I just hope that when he acts on the future problems he has come up with a few solutions before just acting.
