Obama is Mitt, Mitt is Obama.

that's bs. Obama and Romney are very different people.

This is true.

I always find the "both parties are the same, man" line to be silly. Just because things don't change drastically (generally) from President to President doesn't mean that every President is the same as the last.

Well, if you're going to take it quite literally, yeah, it is kind of silly.

I relate very well to the point being made there. All the policies that really rubbed me the wrong way with Bush are carried on by Obama (stimulus, unjust military intervention, complete BS and wasteful war on drugs, etc.) and would have been carried on by Romney. Thus they are the same. Obviously they have different names, look different, and have some very different ideologies and policies. Different angles. Different base. But in the end, the differences between Romney and Obama are painfully slight. Hell, Romney has held most of Obama's stances on things at one point or another in his career (Obama's and almost every other politician's!*).

*Yes, that is a joke, meant to be funny. Least many in here try to take in seriously and argue me into the ground about how very steadfast Romney is.
