President Obama vs President Bush?
Seems like President Obama is following his predecessor point by point
President Bush lied about WMD's in Iraq that eventually resulted in starting an unnecessary war that had no meaning now President Obama is trying to do the same with Iran only difference is that he has an ally in Israel,I admit under President Obama the economy has improved tremendously but my point is that why start unnecessary wars for no reason.
What's the point of all this,or they are just following American tradition of fighting wars out of blue
Update:Same corporate owned media told us in 2003 there were definite proof of WMD's in Iraq but it turned out they had none and for no reason not only it resulted in million of iraqis perished by 4000 plus American troops

1) I don't think Obama is going to start a war with Iran. I don't see it happening unless they attack us, which I highly doubt they will. Even if he did start a war in Iran without them attacking us, there would be some reason for it, unlike Iraq (Iran actually has WMD's, Iraq never did). I'm not saying that I support invading Iran, I'm just saying that it would be a more reasonable war than Iraq was/is.
2) Obama has not improved the economy tremendously. Not yet anyway. He stopped it from getting any worse, but hasn't improved it much. I hope he does improve it, and I think he has the potential to do so, but he's still got 3 years and about 4 months. So we'll have to wait and see.
To those who are willing to put aside bias and search for truth, the answer is simple. Bush had great support from both Dems and Reps and did an excellent job until the end. The war was not perfect, none are, but we gave an ancient people another chance. Almost every industrialized country in the world believed saddam had WMD along with 90% of congress. Obama and his fellow democrats who had mostly supported sending our troops into war, committed treason when they turned their backs on our troops who had WON THE WAR at a cost of 4000 lives and much treasure. Obama then made that cost in vain by sabotaging the Status of Forces Agreement and handing Iraq into the hands of the perpetrators of 9/11. The economy failed because of Obama and his fellow dems forced our lending institutions to make loans to unqualified buyers citing "racism." Under Bush, we had the lowest unemployment in recorded history, high growth in income, reductions in crime, lower numbers of those in poverty and less
As long as we are at war, they can collect more taxes. Obama/Bush, it doesn't matter. Our government system has become so large and corrupt that something must be done to correct it. With all the reform talk, why hasn't anyone talked about reforming the real problem, our government. It's not working people. Our freedoms stripped away, taxes, taxes, taxes, lies, wars, death, scandal, etc... Where does it all stop? Take a good look at the lives we live and the people whom surround us. We deserve a better America and better lives. I call for government reform.
I haven 't seen where the FBP is trying to start a war with Iran. The enrichment plant has been know to exist since the Bush Admin. We are going to try sanctions -- which probably won't work. When the enrichment plants begin production. somethiem will be done
Bush lied about WMDs in Iraq, and got us into a horrible, wasted $3 TRILLION war, with a loss of over 4,000 US troops.
There is definitive proof of nuclear weapons production in Iran. I think we (the entire "free" world, not just the US) have the right and the obligation to destroy (bomb) the nuclear production facilities of "rogue" states/dictatorships, such as N Korea and Iran.
Once they are able to produce sufficient material/weapons, they are crazy/selfish/greedy enough to sell them to the highest bidder. If that happens, we are all screwed!
Anyone who agrees, please write your elected officials and let them know what you think
(in the US, if you don't know who they are, you can find them at www.congress.org )
(Those who argue "if the US can have nukes, WHY can't Iran?", the US and USSR/Russia have been working for many years to reduce those numbers significantly, and that continues. )
You say that the economy has improved over Pres. Bush??? If the unemployment rate continues to rise, that does not seem like improvement to me.
Pres. Bush was not that great either.
Under Obama, the economy I'm afraid is going to get worse.
I didn't realize that Pres. Obama declared war on Iran. I thought he went to the UN and got France and the UK to demand inspections and sanctions. What paper were you reading?
Can you REALLY be this ignorant?? There's a HUGE difference. Iran actually DOES have a nuclear weapons program and is actively seeking to acquire them. Iraq did not.
Liberals and Conservatives are all the same
they are both influenced by Private Organizations so does it really matter that we have parties at all? they're just for show. to Show the world how Civilized and open minded we are. The real presidents are the CEOS and Lobbyist
pay attention to your news programs and you'll find out what the concern is. And for a comparison of obama to bush, compare hank aaron to a fence post. Correct, there is none.
