He was a lot more entertaining than Obama, but only because he made a fool of himself during speeches. Overall, no I do not miss him.

So you are saying that Congress is at fault for the economic meltdown? So by your logic that would also mean that Obama is not to blame for the economic crises of today, congress is, the republican controlled house and democrat controlled senate!!!!

By the way, i am glad that fool of a president and his idiot vp are long gone.

George W. Bush is an evil Christian.

The difference between bush and obama, well first, similarities. Both are neo-cons, but with Bush, we had a president who saw thigns true and provided concrete leadership while implementing his bad ideas. Obama is too transparent with his insecurities about his leadership and he comes across as not knowing what to do. I mean look at all the people jumping out of his administration.

We can't miss him yet because as long as Obama stays incompetent regarding the jobs and economy, his supporters intend to keep Bush around to blame for everything.

Look, I voted for Obama and I am disappointed in his performance to date, with the HUGE and very important exception and accomplishment of some kind of healthcare reform which is a very big deal to people like me and the 50 million uninsured in this country. However, he is still keeping us in two wars and that is equally not ok.

Having said this, he is a LOT better than Bush who at every single turn did something to hurt the average Joe. I challenge you to find me one single thing he actually did to benefit the average Joe. In fact, I challenge anyone to find one single thing. And don't include going to war as one of those options and fightin' 'em over there so we don't have to over here. It's just dumb luck that no one has crossed our wide open border with a mini nuke.

Those aren't wars. And currently we have three "military actions" ongoing.

Congress hasn't declared war since Korea.

I wouldn't say the current President is considerably better than George Bush. But honestly, thats like choosing between a hole in the head, and cutting off your arm. Neither are good choices at this point.

Well, at least Obama has helped out one special group....
Remember the nursery rhyme about Humpty Dumpty falling off a will and all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again?

Dumbya dealt the fatal blow to this country with his unbounded greed and ignorance, and though still on the operating table, the patient is still dying. You don't turn 8 years of utter stupidity around in a few years, perhaps not even a few decades, if ever as the damage is not fatal it is crippling, probably until our ultimate collapse.

His VP was not an idiot, we would be in better shape had he been an idiot. He is an evil bastard, and was the puppetmaster that played Bush like a cheap fiddle.

His allegiance was not to this country but to the industrial military complex, and big banks all run by his friends.
