Maybe because Junior makes him sound less distinguished, and these people have always had an irrational level of hatred for him.
As for the ignorant folks saying "its cuz he is junior STUPID", there is a difference between George Herbert Walker Bush and George Walker Bush. They aren't the same names.

He is a junior, his father's name was also George Bush. George W. uses the W to distinguish himself from his father.

Ignore the middle initials- not important to make someone Sr. or Jr... he is for sure a Jr.

We also call him Dubbaya and he is not a Dubbaya either. You might not realize this, but his father is also named George. so, in order to differentiate him from his father, well, you know.

It is still called Junior when someone has the same name as their father! What country are you from? Obviously not America!
