Only 30% of people would disagree about Bush. He buried us in debt, led us in to a war without justification that we're really going to have trouble getting out of, alienated us from the majority of the globe, erased several of our rights to privacy in the name of counter-terrorism.
Obama hasn't had time to suck yet. He walked in to a shitstorm and is trying to figure out how to clean it up. Whether or not he will be able to remains to be seen, but at least he represents a departure from the typical shady two-faced political culture that has come to be just about everyone in Washington. I'm also impressed at how he really hit the ground running and is trying to get stuff done quickly, I just don't agree that this stimulus package will be what we need to boost the economy.
