What's your point. The date that it expired, or person who was president at the time is entirely irrelevant to - "Because real assault rifles and other automatic weapons are already heavily regulated and have been for a very long time. The "assault weapons" ban, bans weapons defined mostly by cosmetic reasons. Even if you accept the basic ideas behind gun control it would still be a silly law."

It expired under Bush, and to the extent that Bush helped that happen its a plus for him.
