Limited Terrorist attacks on our soil since 9/11
Both of them did a good job on that.
Most have been very limited.

Bush administration: PEPFAR, the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief in Africa. Obama administration: Saved the world from a global depression.
I wouldn't credit the administrations as being responsible for limiting them. I'd say we're lucky there weren't more. Not to mention the worst in history happened during one on them.
They've both delivered on not following-through on most everything they promised. They were consistent in disappointing the constituency.
Bush gave us great daily calendars with his fumbling quotes.
Obama ... made it difficult to mock him on SNL.

Of course, despite all of the Republicans' best efforts to sabotage the economic recovery and Europe's irrational austerity policies.
Kept Al Gore, John Kerry and John McCain from being president.
Bush hired/appointed a lot of minorities, and at the same time did not deport millions of immigrants when given a fairly easy opportunity to do so.
Obama got rid of Don't Ask Don't Tell, extended a lot of same sex benefits federally.

If we're being serious, I think the top Bush achievement probably was saving literally millions of lives with the AIDS program.
Obama demonstrated that a non-white can become the most powerful person in the world.
I can think of some others for both of them, but they would be subject to disagreement.
