Say what you want about immigration, gas prices, hurricanes, and wars, but Bush has definitely done what it takes to make the economy go.

How many quarters of expansion will it take before the MSM stops talking about the "year-end rut" in the lead paragraph?

The only part of the Economy that is in a recession is the Stone-age Press.

It's like the better the economy does the lower his polls go It's ridiculous. You could repeal every tax in the land and give every driver a $1,000 but if gas prices go up a nickel they'll say the economy is in shambles. People are just stuck on stupid I suppose.

On the WOT, Judges, the economy, and sheer decency Bush gets an A+ in my book. On immigration and spending I would have to give him a D. Not that anyone asked me, of course.

Five years ago, anyone predicting that the U.S. economy could achieve a GDP in excess of 5% with oil prices around $69/bbl would have been branded delusional and ignored. The strength of the U.S. economy is astounding considering current energy prices and the geopolitical shocks it has weathered.

I guess that means in the 90s, Clintoon did what it took to make the economy grow. Or weren't folks back then saying the president doesn't affect the economy that much?

Say what you want about immigration...but Bush has definitely done what it takes to make the economy go. B, I generally like your posts, but once I again I feel compelled to address the question of illegal immigration & the economy.
GDP growth is a function of productivity growth and real population growth. If we let in 10m workers (legal or otherwise), and all are employed, then yes, the economy will grow by a comensurate amount.
That's why proponents of illegal immigration say it's 'good' for the economy. To a certain extent that is true as is evidenced by lower inflation (primary a function of wage competition), GDP growth & unemployment (illegals create demand for goods & services that effect the overall economy).
However, and this is BIG however, these are all nominal P&L accounts; that is, they only measure the effect today, not the accrued liabilities that are being pushed into the future. It's the balance sheet accruals that are the 'under the waterline' costs. These are of course what are being incurred by the various levels of government.
So, in a nutshell, businesses profit from the short-term nominal effect, while governments (taxpayers) suffer from the long term effects. One more point - since there's more demand for gov't provided services by low-skill workers, government also grows. This, of course, is a boon to Dem politicians and union leaders.
Combine the short-term advantages and long-term costs, and who benefits? That's who supports illegal immigration.
