I agree with this analysis completely. Maybe Bush is on track to earn a 'D'.


Nor should Bush be blamed for Clinton's overzealous regulatory burdens, where a spate of midnight executive orders penalized businesses and prevented energy production.
[Except he's doing NOTHING to undo the damage]


The main flaw in Bush's economic strategy is the absence of tax cuts to directly stimulate investment and business. Rather than a consumer-led downturn, the economic decline stems from the stock market blowup and a related falling-off-the-cliff of business spending.

Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill recently ruled out cap-gains relief as unaffordable. But this is factually incorrect, and politically mistaken.
