"I don’t know why people can’t accept that W is a bad president when it comes to economics." The Bush tax cuts of 2003 caused federal revenue to grow from $1.7 trillion per year to $2.5 trillion in 2006. That's 47% growth. And that is good. The sub prime situation is not Bush's fault. It's the fault of idiots trying to live in homes they cannot afford.

Right... even more so, the fact that the banks were pressured to provide loans to illegals and other wholly unqualified folks greatly exacerbated things.
