Which do you think was a btr president? (don't just think moraly) President Bush gave us No Child Left Behind and got us alot of oil. Obama did cash for clunkers and tried to pass a health care bill.
The president is a figurehead, a leader. He does nothing else except provide a well known outlet for the masses to yell at their TVs about, for or against. Blame Obama, for what? He's done nothing. He signed a crap healthcare law in, appropriated money we don't have to nothing. That wasn't Obama. Those may have been his ideals, but that was congress. Who ever blames congress? No one. No one at all.
In lawmaking, the president has the power to accept and/or veto laws. So, the president can take in bad laws and veto good ones, in the most extreme cases of course.
Both work, just in different ways. In one, private citizens control; in the other, the government does.
Too black and white to be an argument.
Do the right thing, get us out of this god dam* hole. Debating isn't doing anything; we need action. With fools like you debating over what type of action, you get none at all.
You should shout at the Senate and the Executive branches not us. These words hurt me
Maybe, Maybe not. Obama is still not better than Bush, and maybe be worse. What has worked that he has done so far? The stimulus did nothing, we have socialist healthcare and he is spending like crazy, just like Bush.
yeah but it sounds good right? and it also instils a feeling of patriotism in people because its like soldiers who are wounded and heroically saved by their fellow soldiers.
Wait, I'm confused. Aren't they the same person?
I thought bush just got a reverse MJ operation and went from white to black to be cool. It worked imo because white bush looked like a danglesak and black obushama looks slicker than chocolate love to me.
I really not to fond of either of them. Bush is the biggest Progressive-Republican I've ever seen, probaly second only to LBJ and his 'erfect society'. On the other hand, Obama has added 2.7 Trillion to our debt in just 2 years. Thats a lot of money, and a lot of money I and my fellow citizens will have to end up paying back in taxes.
So I'd say Obama, for screwing up with my future. Thanks a bunch Mr. President.
Bush was like everybody had feared. Worse in every point. War-President.. Gratz ^^ Just an Oil-Nazi
Obama now is such a big disappointment. His charisma gave us all so many expectations (and him the Nobel Prize of Peace ^^). But he didn't do any good things (I can't remember 1), and fulfilled none of his promises. And in a few ways, he did more worse things, then even Bush did.. And who thought, that thats possible ^^
I just can hope, that the world will be spared from that Tea-Party-Bull**** or that crazy Palin-Thing.. Really scary these idiots.
I dont see how we can really compare what with Bush=8 Obama=2 Obama needs 6 more years before I compare him to anyone else. Or 2 if comparing to one term presidents.
I mean, I really wanted a dem president but Obama just isn't liberal enough. He's going along with this stupid comprises for tax cuts which doesn't help the deficit enough in the long run and he's just not doing the things I expected him to do simply because he's catering to lobbyist bull****.
Obama isn't liberal enough? I'm glad Obama isn't "liberal enough".
Like I said, Obama and Bush are quite similar. I don't see how you can support Obama (or say he hasn't gone far enough) when his policies reflect Bush and his policies.
