Lets see,a President goes around scaring people senseless in order to get his bill passed and then runs away on another vacation.

Sound familiar?

Meet the new boss, he's the same as the old boss.

The strange thing is Obama has more in common with Bush than differences... a majority of their policies are very similar... they both think we need a stimulus package, they both think we need a bank bailout package, they both continue the Iraq war, they both want to defeat terrorism through guns instead of words, the both think spending is the key, they both are creating trillions of dollars in debt, they both expanded the government, neither of them really punishes corporations.... oh wait, can you tell me why we are this financial disaster again? What? It was for all the reason stated above? Oh... is that why things are getting worse? Same Sh ! t, Different Day...

When Barack Obama's vacation days get into the 600's he still won't have taken as many vacation days as Wonderboy.

Quit yer whining.

Let's see what Obama's rating is in about 3 and one-half years.

And let's see if Obama can equal both Bush's highest rating (92% for G.W. and 89% for the elder Bush).

Bush never accomplished a high approval rating. He got a sympathy rating. If we hadn't have been attacked, he would never have been far above 50%. And I don't believe your statistic on GHWBush. Must have been a conservative poll.
