The only relevance Bush has to any of this is as a starting point. Saying the "economy was roaring for most of his presidency" is false. He made a terrible mess over 8 years domestically and internationally... that doesn't change the fact that Obama has had 4+ years to fix it and made very little progress.... but it it laughable when you say things were 'roaring for most of his presidency.' Other than funding space exploration of Mars it is difficult to name much positive from the W years. That being said, the fact that it is being raised as part of a 'fiscal cliff' discussion in 2012 is silly.
