212. You got it.
That's the problem right there, Fumesucker.

You constantly criticized Pres. Bush because every position and every legislative act was in stark contradiction to the Democratic ideals.

That's the difference.

Pres. Bush did nothing to advance any of our ideals. Not once. His ideology went against our ideology. Pres. Obama's ideology.

Now you might not agree with everything Pres. Obama has done or you might believe he hasn't gone far enough - but he has done an infinitely better job than Bush. Unfortunately, most on DU do not focus on those gains.

Every action is met with the typical dismissive attitude by many on the left.

That's the problem. Constant criticism and yet, no support when he actually does something right. The response is the continued whine that he's not doing enough.

Yeah. You criticized Pres. Bush. Good for you. But Bush also did absolutely nothing to help advance the causes you hold true.

Pres. Obama has and yet, to your own admission, all you guys can do is whine and complain.
