Bush was a spoiled, megalomaniacal, psuedo-Cowboy, compulsive liar. Obama is...

...NOT.

While President Obama addresses complex issues with an open mind and a deep intellect, many DUers are hand-wringing and having conniptions over how similar he is to the Idiot King, George W. Bush, who could not even recite a time-worn axiom without butchering it (fool me once...). It is absurd to say the two men are one and the same.

I don't like some of what Obama is doing. I do like some of what Obama is doing. I never liked anything Bush did (except his leaving office, and he didn't even do that fast enough). So I figure that means we have a president who is doing a pretty good job at addressing the issues facing the country, and not just those facing the Democratic Party.

If I agreed with everything Obama was doing, I'd start to worry that I'd just become as lockstep as the Republicans.

3. I am part of "all of the U.S."

So yes, that does make it about me. My opinion counts, too.

Only among idiots.

9. People can't make up their minds

Either Obama is not enough like Bush in that he could just ram his policies up the US's ass if he had 'guts' or he's too much like Bush in that he's ramming his policies up the US's ass against their will. So, what is it? Too weak or too strong?

13. LOL. Its ridiculous isn't it? The "decider" was laughed at on DU as a brat.

Obama is much more mature.

10. People are frustrated ok?

We are essentially having a debate between the corporate democrats and the real democrats in congress right now on whether Healthcare is a right or a privilege. We have 58 United States Senators.

The President is the leader of the party, he's going to take a few arrows on this.

12. Their personal styles are very different.

I wish I could say the same about their policy views.

Bush was not a spoiled, megalomaniacal, psuedo-Cowboy, compulsive liar. Obama IS.

Fixed, the rest was just his usual crap.

.....the rest was just his usual crap.

I know, and probably decent and civilized people get tired of the same-old-stuff from Pedro Picasso, but you see, I'm trying to help him, guide him, to becoming a better person.

If anyone needs help in that area, it's Pedro Picasso.

And it might be beyond my own capabilities to do it.

But try one must.

Well, that's some squibble-squabbling, isn't it?  Shocked. 

[USA4ME]

In a vain attempt to claim he's not one who walks in lockstep, Pedro then trys to influence others to walk in lockstep as he is doing and not make certain comparisons.

Poor, poor Pedro.

with an open mind and a deep intellect

This is sarcasm, right? If his first few months in office are any indicator, he's DUmmer than a sack of hammers!
