i agree that he is not a good president. But what happened on 9/11 would have caused a deflationary depression in the US if AG hadnt come thru with lower rates but especially for the long term if bush hadnt done the tax cuts. And in doing the tax cuts, he didnt have the luxury of wasting time trying to get spending under control. There was no time arguing with dems or republicans funding of their favorite pork. Without that decisive tax cutting action, admittedly with too much debt from both spending and war spending, bush pulled off an economic miracle. There will be problems that have to be dealt with for some time because of how it was done, but if it wasnt done you would be selling apples and me pencils. Hate bush for the war, the courts, whatever but dont deny that he saved the American Goose.
