The reasons that people usually cite for hating bush are the same things Obama promised to stop and yet continues.

Bush - Iraq/Afghanistan
Obama - Iraq/Afghanistan/Libya

Bush - high deficit/ high debt/ climbing unemployment
Obama - higher deficit/ higher debt/ promised unemployment wouldn't go above 8% and it went above 10 and is now above 9

Obama promised to end guantanamo within a year and did not, and end military tribunals but yet still continues them.

But these are mostly domestic issues, i guess Obama is nicer to the international community while Bush had an America is Number 1 mentality.

Bush - Started 2 wars (one illegally). During Bushes administration banks and insurance companies started the financial crisis and plunged the world into recession.

Obama - Has tried to end 2 wars and bring soldiers home. During Obama's administration he's helped to stablise the world ecomony by saving banks, this involed bail outs. But due to dept before Obama, companies have gone out of business putting thousands in unemployment in Obama's administration.

Different perspectives.

Quite wrong.

Obama didn't bail out the banks. Bush did via TARP. Obama hasn't 'tried to end 2 wars and bring soldiers home'. Can you offer ANY data that Obama has accellerated the return of our soldiers?

Oh, and Obama started an illegal war. Look at the problems Obama is getting from both sides of the fence with the War Powers Act. Obama is doing all Bush had done and more in a shorter time frame. If you disliked Bush for the various reasons (financial crisis, wars, ect), then you should dislike Obama, because he is Bush on crack cocaine.
