If I am to assume "Bush" means G.W.B., the Unelectable, the War Criminal, the Great Deregulator, the Cosmic Liar, then I think the answer is quite clear....

Not a fair comparison. We've had eight years to pick apart the Bush administration, and we still don't have all the information. The Obama administration has just started, so we don't yet know how it will finish.

Ya know... for everyone who wants to compare Bush and Obama NOW I can't help but say..... on August 13, 2001, everything Bush would become known for, whether you approve of it or despise it, hasn't even happened yet and wasn't even seen as a (likely) possibility during his term. So on August 13, 2009, I'm supposed to judge Obama in comparison to that?

I certainly agree, except for the fact that Bushy was already taking a lot of vacation time out on his Crawford Ranch, so I think we knew from the start what we got into with him... Just not the degree of what we got into...

But still, you are right, it's a bit premature for Bush-Obama comparisons, just yet.

Depends.

As human target to discover what happens if I run over someone with my new car, I'd say that using Bush would be the best option.

Well...

Obama is tackling an economical crisis, is trying to fix the US automobile industry, and is trying to give healthcare coverage to everyone...

While as of August 13, 2001 the thing that Bush was most renowned for was being in Texas, smoking out armadillos out of their holes.

ouch this hurtz my brainz! OK really like everyone else says (or most) it is way to early to tell who will be better. As far as we know Obama could be better or worse then Bush. Also most experts on the issue agree that it will take years to fix the economy, and at that probably longer then one damn term.

God had 8 years to prove his existance to me. As Bush wasn't stricken down by a lightning, I'd say that God failed to prove himself.

Truth be told, on August 13, 2001 all Bush Jr. managed to accomplish is taking an unprecidented amount of vacation time, and losing a spy plane to China.

You have both, and neither on the poll. How can that be possible? No two people are exactly the same. One of the will be worse than another, the other better. To be fair, we need to let Obama finish his presidency, be it one or two or more terms before asking these questions. Unless something catastrophic happens, or some crazy shit like that, and it's very obvious to everyone that Obama caused it.
