Phhbt... compared to Obama Carter could be worthy of the "Elder Statesman" title. Jimmy was fairly useless, Barry is downright detrimental.

However, I hope the President is made aware of the comparisons and chooses to go down a different road instead.
Every President has had to deal with benchmarks and comparisons, not just your mancrush.

This and the quote below are downright laughable. Name one conservative thing BHO has done.

His "deliberately slow actions" for Afghanistan has nothing to do with being conservative ... it has to do with him having no idea on what to do. His dithering is due to indecisiveness and the typical democratic inability to make tough military decisions.

It's the old funny saying....

"I'm their leader, which way did they go?"

Obama is clueless on foreign policy. He is still trying to figure out where afghanistan is. He thought they said afghan, and told them his granny makes those all the time!

Calling Obama conservative is funny. Someone needs to take off the rose colored glasses.

The first bailout from Bush went to the little guys, you and me. How much did you see from Obama's little frat party?

The ones that did see it did not need it!

The comparison quickly fades when looked at in reality.

Re: President Obama: "A Lot Like Jimmy Carter"

Actually, GWB took criticism because the focus of his bail out WAS NOT to help the average citizen.




Funny how people like to rewrite history just to make a false point, in order to make a false assessment of someone seem all the more credible.

Like I said. I'm not a fan of either bailout, but comparing them objectively there appears to me a bit more transparency and accountability in the Obama bailout package. Personally, I have not seen anything from either one. I don't recall info on what was going to states and what restrictions were being placed on the money given to companies. It seemed that the Obama administration for better or worse was more interested in being involved with the companies that received our money.

Just curious JD, how much money did you get from the stimulus of Bush compared to the stimulus of Obama?

If you were not a part of Goldman sax, or worked for one of the other stimulus recievers, then you probably got $0.00

I guess it is all perspective.
