They are about 90% the same. Not really understanding all this love for Obama, but not for Bush. Maybe the (D) next to the name has something to do with it.

I've always wanted an answer to the question you posed. Using your logica too, why do Conservatives hate Obama's policies, but not Bushes. The point you made about the similarity between both of their policies is quite accurate.

I don't think many conservatives liked Bush's policies, now neo-conservatives, you might have a point. Bush and Obama are both oligarchical corporatist, neo-conservatives.

Bush spent money on Iraq and rebuilt their road system and school system, while Obama spent money on US!

Good for you. It takes a strong person to "man-up" like that.

I don't know of any liberals that support Obama's policies that mirror Bush's.

Didn't you claim to be a leftist?

The typical Obama supporter couldn't name an Obama policy.
