President Obama

I see so many answers on this board saying Bush administration was awful.

I am independent, I don't discriminate against either party, I dislike them both equally...having said that....

Bush enacted "Patriot Act" - unconstitutional
Obama extending Patriot Act provisions...

Bush attacked sovereign countries : Iraq & Afghanistan
Obama threatening sovereign country: Pakistan

The world was making fun of Bush
Same world is ignoring Obama

Bush spent like crazy
Obama is spending like he is insane

So what is the difference between this two administrations?
