Yeah that's pretty much the spirit of it I think. Its not that Bush and Obama are the same because clearly they aren't. Its that people's
frustrations under both presidents have been generally the same. Except that for Bush it was the republicans giving the litany of excuses why things were getting worse, and now under Obama its the democrats giving the litany of excuses why things are getting worse.
In my opinion, no support for the president is ever more important than support for the country and fixing its problems.
So yeah, I'm done with Obama because I'm done with presidents overstepping the constitution when declaring wars, not balancing the budget, not investing in science and education, not curbing wall street influence, not divorcing corporate interests with government, etc.
