First, I don't think Bush did anything illegal. Second, the issues in question have already been investigated. Third, I don't think any new investigations will uncover new information. Fourth, I don't think the administration has been unreasonably stonewalling any investigations. Fifth, I don't think claims of executive privilege are bogus - it is a serious Constitutional issue requiring careful thought and diligence. And, I would hope Obama protects executive privilege as have many Presidents have in the past.
I don't give Bush or any President "carte blanche" to stonewall or to do whatever they want.
