Pros and cons of Bush admin being discussed by liberals all over SI. Here we give it a fair assessment, keeping in mind that the choice was Bush vs. Gore and Kerry.

My take:

PRO
Tax cuts
Economic growth
Domestic security
Supreme Court appointments
Afghanistan
Libya
Korea, Iran
Enron and other corporate prosecutions

CON
Slow growth in wages
Medicare bill is sop to Big Pharma
Energy bill is sop to Big Oil
Budget mismanagement and deficit growth
No Child Left Behind
Steel and lumber tariffs
McCain-Feingold
Crop subsidies
Immigration
Palestinian subsidies
Hurricane subsidies

CLOSE CALL
Iraq
