There is a big difference between Obama and Bush when it comes to "talking the talk," so to speak, but I see little difference between the two when it comes to "walking the walk." I thought even the most partisan types would be realizing this by now, but I was wrong. Perhaps the biggest difference: Bush made America look dumb and arrogant while Obama is making America look weak and aimless. Neither is particularly desirable and, as such, both are awful presidents (although Obama can at least attempt to redeem himself). If Obama and Co. were a business, they would have been sued for false advertising by now.

No.  I would like to bring Gaddafi over now that he's at loose ends.  He might be a lot of fun, and anyway he would probably slaughter a lot of deservings.

Depends. Could we have him impeached, removed from office and arrested shortly after?

This, and Bush made it harder for Republicans to get elected at the end of his term, and I have a feeling Obama will make it harder for Democrats to get elected at the end of his term.

Has Obama unilaterally invaded another country? Admittedly, what happened in Libya was bad, but how can you even compare him with Bush? That being said, Obama is certainly not some great president. He just looks good in comparison.

No way - Obama may be ineffective, but at least he has a good mind and a good heart, unlike Bush.

If we take him back and bring the receipt, could we trade him in for an Al Gore?

Yes. I'd put my least favorite politician at the helm of the US and every European country.

Uggh, this is a terrible decision.  I would have to say Bush, and Im not saying that because Im conservative or vote republican, but because we could stop implementation of Obamacare.  If it werent for Obamacare, then I would keep Obama over Bush if it were the only choice.

Over Obama? No.

Over any of the Republicans (who have realistic chances of winning the nomination) in the 2012 field? Yes.
