If we are going to push all the blame for 9/11 and everything Bush did in its wake onto Clinton, can we not then Bush all the blame for the current economy onto Bush?

Here is the reality. If Obama ends up being a 1 term president (and I still don't think he will be, but you never know) and the republican who takes over has economic problems (which they will have because if the economy is fine Obama will be re-elected) then they will blame Obama and the person who is after them will blame them for whatever is wrong. It is the the cycle of how the system works. Everyone blames their problems on the actions of their predecessors.
