Bush versus Obama

I keep reading the President Obama is the worst President in History by Tea Party members, Republicans and the lot. From Congressman Quale to others, they say President Obama is the worst. I have liberal friends that say President Bush is the worst. I am just going to compare the two on two issues. Think for your self. President Bush states he was a war time President and with 9/11 the two biggest items for him was the War on Terror with Bin Ladin and the Iraq War. How to take down a dictator? Forget the reasons for war? Create a democracy or fight for oil, fight because a hit on your dad or any reason. Iraq versus Libya? The Iraq War was over 8 years long with 4500 US troops killed and over 30,000 wounded. Iraqi killed over 110,000. Cost of war in dollars $800 Billion. Now we have other costs of health care and unemployment of vets and other types of costs-world view of US, increase in number of terrorists against the US. Libya, $10 B spend, 7 months long and not one US death or wounded. We were in the background of a NATO/UN coalition that was a mission to protect citizens and help the anti Government forces. George Bush had 7 years to get Osama Bin Ladin and at one time was close in grasp but he escapted. After 2003, the President no longer cared about the number one terrorist. President Obama in less than 3 years killed the terrorist in a surprise raid in Pakistan. How in the world with these two facts can President Obama be worse than Bush? Costs of war and effects. Two hugh wins for Obama. How can one of these wins make him the worst President in history. The worst has no wins and these were major.
