The NRO link was accurate if limited. It focuses on the equivalent periods in Clinton's and Bush's presidency and shows how Bush compares favorably. More importantly it points out that -

Since the Bush administration began, non-farm productivity has increased at a 4.1 percent annual rate — the fastest pace for the start of any presidency since Harry S. Truman occupied the White House.

and

Most private-sector forecasters expect the U.S. economy will grow faster this year (on an average annual basis) than in any year since 1984.

and

At 5.6 percent, the national unemployment rate is now lower than the average unemployment rate of the 1970s, 1980s, and the 1990s.
