Bush’s Legacy

  • Posted by: Andrew Price
  • on January 25, 2008 at 2:04 pm

This garish chart on the U.S. pre- and post-Bush comes straight from the Democratic Caucus (they might have cherry-picked a little), but it’s hard to argue things have gotten better over the last seven years.

It would be a lot easer to argue that 9/11 and various other things outside of Bush’s control contributed to these depressing numbers, if you were so inclined.

Thanks Jay.
