Putting Iraq aside...
Both were/hawks
Both support wiretapping Americans
Both are corporatists
Both support enhanced interrogation
Both did bail outs
Both attempted to reform healthcare

I don't think Bush and Obama are all that digferent. Mainly just their persona an image and Obama has better PR

1. Stop concern trolling.
2. Threads like this belong in political debate/individual politics, NOT U.S. GENERAL DISCUSSION.

Both are capitalist oppressors. I guess Obama is a bit better on a few notes though.

Why is DevotedDemocrat a robot that only creates threads with mindless beltway-like talking points and never responds to anything after? He just creates more and more pointless threads....

This is where the thread went completely off the rails.

You may as well have said, "Putting aside the insatiable need to drink the blood of the living, how is Obama any different from Dracula?"

Obama isn't a hawk (but I'm bound to say that). His foreign policy can be summed up as 'something something red lines'. I can see your point on the others though, even if I disagree.

Sure if you are suggesting that about the thread (metaphorically speaking) rather than the poster. Smiley
