The first-term economic records: Bush vs. Obama

[Teddy B 17,252]

Comparing Bush to Obama in an economic sense is ridiculous.

Bush was handed the reigns with a booming economy and a budget surplus, which was turned into the largest budget deficit in history and a recession within just 8 years. And he started two unecessary wars.

Obama was handed the reigns of a sinking ship that was continuously springing new leaks. He has slowly plugged the leaks and has started righting the ship. Not to mention putting an end to the two wars the other guy started.

Cracks me up how the so called "conservatives" try to defend one of the least conservative presidents (Bush) in recent history.

I've yet to hear anyone who says Obama is the worst in history, compare him to Bush. It's like they avoid it because it counters their POV.

I believe someone here stated that Obama is the worst President in history the other day, not sure who it was though.

Here it is:

It is one thing to be the worst POTUS ever but to be so weak also is shameful.

as long as Jimmy Carter is out there it is going to be hard for any President to surpass his incompetence

As for Bush vs Obama

Both sucky Presidents -Not sure which is worse.. It amuses me to see Libs defending Obama for the same shat they gave Bush hell for .

And it's amusing to watch conservatives clown Obama for the same stuff they gave Bush a pass for.

Oh I know it's been said here a few times, my first post in this forum was in response to someone who posted a book why Obama is the worst president in history. When I listed all the scandals that have befallen all POTUS before him, that person didn't respond back.

Agree.

I voted for Bush twice and I still get called a liberal, pretty comical. Obama 2nd term, was the first Democrat that I have ever voted for President. At first I felt a little dirty pulling the lever for Obama, but now that all my free shyt has come rolling in, I can only wonder why I didn't vote Democrat all along.

Same. And probably would again given the same situation. Its always between a douche and a #######.

I wouldn't vote for Bush in the 2nd term again. I was hesitant to vote for him in that 2nd term, but I did out of blind loyalty, I guess.

I did get free shat. Awesome insurance for my wife.

Also after I saw how Fedex amazingly and blatantly abuses labor laws by using the term Sub Contractor and working people 70 hour weeks for min wage, I am about to be pro-Union

I am for ending all foreign military action, unless super duper really good reason

I am for universal health care

I am pro gay rights and Abortion

I am for trade protections

I am for stricter labor laws

I am against the massive erosion of personal liberties that have taken place in the last 12 years

But oddly enough because I think we need to curtail the massive govt entitlement programs and believe that liberty includes ones right to keep and bear arms, I am labeled a right wing nut job by the short sided left.

I'm a lifelong Democrat, yet I still haven't gotten my free shyt. I think it's because I'm black.

No worries, we'll work on the issues you still have. Your commie bona fides are certainly improving. Don't worry about guns and entitlements. We have a big tent.
