How do you compare Obama to Bush Jr?

I think GWB and BHO were, and are, respectively, equally horrible presidents. .

Update:

since I pre-empted the bush hating liberals, I wonder how they'll defend Obama. I'll agree that Bush sucked, so they don't have the only ammunition they ever have, which is to blame Bush.

    There is no comparison. President Obama is all that Bush Jr. can only inspire to be.

    A real leader accepts responsibility regardless of fault. Has anyone noticed the class Bush has displayed since leaving office? Not a word out of him denigrating anybody in self defense. I don't believe you ever heard G.W. Bush responding to criticism from the left every time someone or the media spouted some nonsense. Bush has been consistent in his post-presidency: generally stays a private citizen, doesn't criticize the sitting president much at all (unlike Carter or Clinton)....and leaves the national role & spotlight to the sitting president. Respectfully leave the headline to the current prez. No need for headline or flashing cameras.

    I rate Obama as a bad president, where his policies mimic those of Bush. He was elected to be the opposite of Bush and has not delivered.

    I rate Bush as the most terrible president in at least a hundred years. Bailouts, starting 2 wars, taking away civil rights, torture, omnivore, etc.
