How is President Obama worse than President George W. Bush?

[Lakhota]

President Obama seems much better to me. What do you think? Got any credible facts?

 

[Avorysuds]

Expanded the war on terror.

Bail-outs like Bush did

More wasted stimulus money spent than Bush did.

Started more sub-wars with no timeline or constitutional authority.

Did a bigger, more costly and less successful health care power grab than Bush's Medicare part D.

Expanded off Bush's homeland security

Expanded upon Bush era tax cuts.

Spent more on military spending than Bush.

Gave us the NDAA.

Divided the country like no President has ever done before.

Went to a well known racist church for over 20 years.

Expanded the patriot act.

Got the country downgraded.

More people on food stamps than ever before

More people on welfare than ever before.

Less people able to get jobs out of college than ever before.

Attacking the second amendment for no fucking reason seeing all the attacks were illegal already.

Kills tens of thousands of innocents in other countries with wars and drones.

Takes every opportunity to attack Republicans (the other side/team) possible.

Has the FED's bailing out markets at 40 billion a month.

UE is rising yet again.

Guantanamo still open.

Pretty much every single thing you hated about Bush only expanded or is still there.

Obama only ended the Iraq war on the Bush timeline.... But tried to stay past it, was kicked out by the Iraq government, lol... Makes sense you think he is better than Bush.

When you reach the point where you have to ask questions like this, then you know something with Pres. Obama is very, very wrong.

Actually, I'm asking the question because right-wingers have gone crazy since Obama was first elected - but I don't recall them similarly bashing Bush. Is it because Obama is a Democrat...or something else...?

OK ONCE AGAIN I want YOU to answer THESE QUESTIONS!!!

And so all the while the MSM was bashing Bush and putting ALL the negatives stories Bush was having to deal with Four (4) Major events that have NEVER in the history of the USA came together in an 8 year period!

DID THIS HAPPEN???
1) Dot.com bust cost $5 trillion in lost market value.. this means every year for 30 years now starting in 2000 the federal revenue is over $66 billion written off against taxes owed???
How many people LOST jobs due to the bust??
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $5 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies. More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 -
and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.

DID THIS HAPPEN???

2) Did YOU forget that 9/11 occurred and it cost $2 trillion over the next 30 years again $33 billion will NOT BE PAiD.. was that Bush's fault?
Jobs lost in New York owing to the attacks: 146,100 JUST in New York!!
Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone.
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.
The Top 10 Financial Events of the Decade

DID THIS HAPPEN???
3) $1 trillion in written off losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history!

The worst Katrina?? made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. Andrew slammed into South Florida in 1992 as a Category 5. It caused 40 deaths and $30 billion in property damage. More than 250,000 people were left homeless and 82,000 businesses were destroyed or damaged.
Hurricane Katrina ALONE! Year 2005: Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
On August 25, 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast of the U.S. as a strong Category 3 or low Category 4 storm. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

Hurricane Rita quickly followed Katrina only to make matters worse. Between the two, more than $200 billion in damage was done. 400,000 jobs were lost and 275,000 homes were destroyed. Many of the jobs and homes were never to be recovered. Hundreds of thousands of people were displaced and over 1,000 were killed and more are missing. The effect on oil and gasoline prices was long-lasting.

400,000 jobs due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita
145,000 jobs in NYC alone due to 9/11
300,000 jobs lost due to dot.com busts.

Almost 1 million jobs alone from those 3 events AND Obama cries about Tropical storm Isaac?????

DO YOU understand NONE of that was Bush's fault!
$100 billion a year in LOST federal revenue! DO YOU understand and NOT one dollar the fault of Bush!


Finally the 4th event AGAIN I am sure YOU never knew and the MSM NEVER reported!!!

Obviously YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED in the Economic Terrorist attack of 9/18/2008!!!!!

HERE Read this and see why Bush may have looked like he was going to cry!!!
DID THIS HAPPEN???
"The near economic collapse on Thursday (Sept 18,2008), at 11am the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw-down of money market accounts in the U.S., to the tune of $550 billion was being drawn out in the matter of an hour or two.
The Treasury opened up its window to help and pumped a $105 billion in the system and quickly realized that they could not stem the tide.
We were having an electronic run on the banks.
They decided to close the operation, close down the money accounts and announce a guarantee of $250,000 per account so there wouldn’t be further panic out there.

If they had not done that, their estimation is that by 2pm that afternoon, $5.5 trillion would have been drawn out of the money market system of the U.S., would have collapsed the entire economy of the U.S., and within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed.
It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it.

No need to get your blood preasure up, the OP just proved himself the race baiting ass he usually is.

Obama's Idea of leading this country is by Dividing it among Racial, and Economic Lines. To him everything is a campaign, he cares more about defeating his Political Opponents than this country.

All you're talking about was at the hands and the behest of the Republican Congress. Stop telling lies on the President.

It is because he wants to "fundamentally change America" and make it into something the young Benito Mussolini would have given both gonads to have achieved. It seems to me that Obama and those who support him must really hate what America stood for over its first 225 years.

Bush divided this Country pretty good,he wasn't much of a Uniter.....piss poor leader.....Obama hasn't done a dam thing to try and bring people together,he has made it worse......you don't tell a bunch of Hispanics that the Republican party is your enemy......a good leader would never incite people like that against a sizable portion of the Country.....Obama is not much of Uniter himself..... once again.....piss poor leader....

Still confused as to whether Obama is a Fascist or Communist or Socialist, I see.

National debt increase under Bush two terms $4.899 trillion 5 trillion if you want to round up we are barley into Obama's second term and he is already over 6 trillion added his much hyped Arab spring is not going well Syria is a royal mess Iran is still giving us and the world the big middle finger over it's nukes program unemployment is till near 8% gas prices still well over three dollars a gallon. Doesn't seem much better to me at best things seem about the same and in some cases worse.
