We won't know for years. The impact of the policies on this adminsitration are far from clear at this time. Certainly, the decisions made in many financial areas...endless debt and borrowing vs. restrained spending and, even, tax increases....are already being felt. Lack of regulaton at even a basic level (see the SEC and Madoff) are evidence of a disdan for government while trusting the world to govern itself.

How much damage....? Immense by even the most conservative commentators' views. The impact....check back in a few years.

Many accused even traditional conservatives who could not understand Mr. Bush's approach to goverance as having BDS....but there is also Bush Apologist Syndrome.

Let the numbers speak for themselves. Unemployment, deficits, TARP, war costs, GDP drop...does the buck not stop anywhere, or is BAS the order of the day.

The criticism of Obama on this thread and others is remarkable, considering he has done nothing officially yet. His efforts will be by necessity dealing with the issues handed off from Mr. Bush. If Mr. Obama is so bad, and he is criticized for his efforts to deal with the issues left him, are not the persons who helped create those issues not subject to some review? Plenty of conservative commentators out there thinking the same as I.
