We've been using bazaar at Fluther for a while and I have to agree with the author's sentiment for the most part.
The whole "Git is better" thing annoys me. Dvcs _are_ better, but I think it's mostly a wash between bzr, hg, and git. Yes, bzr is slower here and there (used to be annoying, now it's fast enough that it's a basically a non-issue). The parts I like more than git (though I'm no git pro) is the very flexible work-flow options (we use multiple, and they're awesome), the excellent merge algorithm, and the directory/branch structure, to name a few.
Git is great. So it bazaar. It's all this machismo that bugs me. We should really be on the same side trumpeting why dvcs are better.
IMO bzr, git and hg are comparable and these dabates are no different emacs vs vim.
My personal preference is bzr but I quite like hg also. I also like git but the only thing that keeps me away from git is the whole fanboy culture around it.
