It's Obama's White House, but it's still Bush's world

When conservatives brand President Obama a socialist or a foreigner, his aides laugh it off. When critics disparage him as arrogant or aloof, they roll their eyes. But if liberals dare compare Obama to his predecessor in the Oval Office, the gloves come off.

3. Much, much difference: with junior, we got an either you are with us or you are agin' us

followed by systematic punishment directed at almost all not with him and with BHO we get elegant and eloquent populist soliloquies followed by continuation of many of junior's major initiatives and fresh initiatives too often implementing a seemingly largely right of center agenda. All the difference in the world imo. :)
