Bottom line to me is that the comparison's to Bush are a smoke screen and nothing more. Each president handled different situations.
My problem with Obama right now is that he seems to be throwing trillions of dollars at the economic situation without a lot of foresight or due diligence.
I don't agree with the concept that you can merely spend your way out of a recession while peddling a message of hope, it just seems to be the solution that people want to hear and see, and personally I think its a bad plan.
That and Obama seems to be doing a lot of back peddling on multiple situations and his handling of foreign policy seems to be a example of more McCain solutions then his own.
I agree that its a bit too early to be judging an entire presidency, but I think he's had a below average start.
