I seriously think he is doing a great job. I don't think I've seen a President work harder. I'm a supporter, higher taxes or not.
Yay!
Yay!

He's accomplished more in 3 months than Bush did in 8 years.
Not even close. The more substantial and beneficial accomplishments usually take much longer than that. Its early and Obama is still far behind other Presidents as he should be after less than 3 months in office when it comes to accomplishments.
In the past couple of months, Obama certainly has taken more steps I approve of than Bush has in eight years.
The handling of Afghanistan and disruption of Al Quaida is one of those tactical things of beauty that people are willing to ignore just because they don't agree with Iraq. But, a hell of an accomplishment nonetheless.
Obama is far behind where he should be? Really, where should he be?
Your definition of 'beauty' is different from most. Even most Bush apologizers wouldn't go that far...
If by "accomplish" we're using a definition that means 'ruining everything one touches' than yes, Bush was far more "accomplished". If we're using the definition that means making careful, logical, and rational decisions that will actually benefit our country and the rest of the world, then, yes, Obama has already accomplished more in 3 months than Bush did in 8 years. I don't recall W. ever making one of those.

In the coming years, will see a much more positive and objective assessment about Bush even from Democrats and liberals. In some ways, Obama is already moving away from some of his often repeated campaign statements.
Obama is still far behind other Presidents as he should be because he has only been in office for less than 3 months.
I would hope that everyone has different definitions of beauty.
Not that you and Memphis were necessarily considering this particular breed to round out the future household...
The president did well with the pirate deal. He allowed the military to use their discretion, and kept quiet publicly until the job was done.
And thanks to the SEALs we have one more brave American coming home alive. And a New Englander at that
