Re: OMO #32784
Ask yourself, RE 9/11 and the totality of the Bush economic record, would you consider it an 'unjust beat down' if all if had occurred under and been attributed to, a President Gore?

I'll spell you the 'pondering'. Every righty on this board, if not yourself, would hang ALL of that shit around Gore and the Dem's necks.

And Libruls wouldn't have shit to credibly say about any of it.

Accountability and responsibility, we are often lectured by the most sanctimonious and most hypocritical on this board, are 'conservative values'.

Well, neither are on backorder from the GOP Accountability and Responsibility big box stores.

Quote:
A Look Back at Bush's Economic Missteps

Two terms, eight years — and eight significant economic mistakes

Bush's Economic Mistakes
Bush's Budget Blunders

By Justin FoxMonday, Jan. 19, 2009

George Bush is leaving the White House with a dismal economic record. By almost every measure — GDP growth, jobs, median incomes, financial-market performance — he stacks up as probably the least-successful President on the economic front since Herbert Hoover.

It's not all Bush's fault. He inherited an inevitable recession in 2001, and even last year's financial collapse was to some extent the result of unsustainable trends in place long before he moved to Washington.

Also, we generally give Presidents both more credit and more blame for economic outcomes than they probably deserve. As Bush mock-moaned in his final White House press conference, "Why did the financial collapse have to happen on my watch?"

His next words, though, were, "It's just pathetic, isn't it, self-pity?" So let's spare him the pity. As the decider in the White House for the past eight years, George Bush made some economic calls that don't look smart today. Here are eight of them.
