The economic growth under W was from government growth, a weak dollar, wars, a housing bubble, and a commodities bubble. It was all smoke and mirrors, and unsustainable.
Whose signature was on that 2009 budget that created the largest deficit? Who went around clucking that "suprime was contained," when it really wasn't?
See if you can stay on subject for a moment...
Federal Revenue was at an all time high under Bush tax rates.
The largest deficit was in 2010 and will be exceeded in 2011.
Bush tried 3 times to shut down the Fannie, Freddie, subprime mess, only to be rebuffed by the Dodd, Franks, Schummer, et al.
And you’re simply WRONG about the economic growth being government growth. It was in fact PRIVATE SECTOR GROWTH, under Bush.
