The Eonomist has always been a consevative publication. However, they tend to be fiscally conservative, which might explain why they could be perceived as "anti-Bush."
But for the sake of argument, what does President Bush have to do with the RE bubble?
The constant and incredulous drumbeat of impending RE bubble doom is orchestrated to make the President look bad, so as to elect a democrat congress.
All this to put impeached felon Alcee Hastings in the chair of the House Intelligence Committee.
Rave on.
