Want to know the most important difference between Bush and Obama for me?
Edited on Wed Apr-29-09 05:50 PM by NNN0LHI
I pretty much trust Obama's judgment and believe what he says. Within reason that is. I believe he truly is trying to do the right thing on just about everything. He is nothing at all like the beady eyed smirking motherscratcher he replaced. If Obama says something I give him the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. That is something I would have never done with Bush after we caught him in so many lies.

3. I think the most important difference is INTELLIGENCE!
Bush wasn't smart enough to be the President. Obama brings intelligence back to the White House.

4. Mostly, I just don't feel he has a secret plan for world domination.
And I always felt that way about BushCo. Of course, it never worked out the way they planned...I'm going to say you should avoid secret plans for world domination if planning isn't your strength.

6. And that of course is the best disguise ...BWAAHHAHAHAAHAAAA!!!
;)

Seriously though, I never lose sight of the reality that any admin and/or politician serves other vested interests over working for the common good of all.

5. I feel the same way except I still feel the need to hold his feet to the fire
He said he would start bringing troops home from Iraq beginning on day one. That he would bring one brigade a month home...It has been a hundred days now and not a single brigade has been brought home...He said he believed in bottom up economics and yet gave all our money to the ultra wealthy bankers and somehow expects it to "trickle down", He wants to give the banks our money so they will loan it back to us at usurious rates... I have concerns but do they come anywhere close to my concerns under Republicans.....Hell no..
