    Obama has done almost everything differently. He quit kissing Pakistan's ass for one thing. He hasn't launched into unwinnable wars. Europe is back on our side. It goes on and on.

    the drones and raids in sovereign paki territory say otherwise. i am willing to hear this argument because i am not barrys pal, but i cant find much fault with his following bush policy. of course he is spending like a bush as ewll so that i dont like as much.

    You are deluding yourself. Read a little bit and you'll quickly find that he is not following Bush's policies at all. Why would he?

    because he realizes they are sound.

    its like with guantanamo. to get elected you say over and over you will close it. but why? no need to close it, thats stupid. and he knows this. and he gets eleted saying the opposite. but when president, he wants to be somewhat competent, so he breaks the promise, he never meant it. it would be fucking crazy to close guantanamo. he knows that, bush knew it.

    Then why did he change them? Any fool can see that Obama and Bush foreign policy are not at all similar. Obama has just been successful, so Republicans are trying to take credit for it.

    probably not, but make it transparent enough to remove all doubt.

    Don't worry Martin Red compares W & Barry's policies favorably in one post then when convenient changes. IT is his special way of "debating".

    But not so transparent that it aids our enemies. Don't forget that important point.
