You meant Bush 41, of course.

I can tell by your description.

Well?
We cant get out of Iraq and Afghanistan right this minute; we have to be realistic about that.

Foreign aid - all big fish have to buy their "friends" among the smaller fish, it's just the way the world works.

N Korea - China's supposed to be more or less responsible for them; we're bound by alliance to protect S. Korea and japan.

So in other words Obama is just doing the same as Bush and you support it. Well that sure was a surprise.

Well, if Obama doing the same thing Bush was, you must support him also.

Bush started a war, Obama's trying to get us out of it.

Obama is trying to set regulations to close up the financial hole Bush got us into.

Foreign aid, North Korea: Im sure you're just pretending to be naive about those.

Infrastructure, education... go look at whitehouse dot gov / issues and compare to old Bush whitehouse dot gov pages. The two couldnt be more different.

In the last two weeks or so I've seen a flurry of right wingers on here parroting that Bush and Obama are the same. Where does this come from? I understand the RNC and the right wing bloggers are trying to paint into your minds that Bush was really a liberal, Obama is a liberal, therefore Obama = Bush. I cant believe you all would be so stupid as to fall for that. They must really think you're idiots.

Wow. It's common sense that these nations are unstable and struglling to keep their sovereignity.

Sorry Soccersupporter that Obama didn't magically control Haiti, Iran, NK, and militants far away like he said during his campaign. Obviously Mr. Bush was much more successful in accomplishing world peace. *Ahem* Iraq, Afghanistan, Darfur, Georgia, etc.
If President Obama becomes a world cop (which you are inciting him to do), I'm sure every conservative would claim he jumps into problems that are not our own. If he does become a world cop, NK or Iran will be a much tougher target than the evil empire of Grenada President Reagan destroyed.

I guess you only see through YOUR partisan eyes. I do not support Obama, I did not support Bush or vote for him. I am not a sheep like you and most of the voters. I know that we have a corrupt 2 party system that in the end has very little difference between the 2 parties.

Next!

Obama will have us in Afghanistan for a 100 years, just like Bush and Iraq. Same thing different location.

Obama is moving the financial mess from the private sector to the government sector, GM Chrysler, AIG, bank bailouts, etc. Same thing different owners.

Foreign aid, Korea. I guess you just want to do the Bush thing. Maybe your just another victim of our 2 party system. Yep, that's it!

Infrastructure, education. You're kidding right? Words, words, more words. Another colossal government train wreck.

Not a right winger, not a sheep, not a worshiper at the alter of the 2 party system.

Got anything of substance to offer?

Next!

Hope and Change. Yep that's the ticket. Sometimes I fell like I am at a politcal pep rally in the "Brave New World"
