"Our Sincere Thanks"
Ruffini starts the revisionism:
On taxes, Bush did everything right. Being a shrewd politician, he tackled the easy part first, but never followed up on the hard part (spending). Lest we be too hard on the man in this case, he is not exactly unlike most politicians in that way, and most of the responsibility for the spending atrocities rests with Congress. Were it not for the war, this would have been an era of tax cuts and fiscal responsibility -- and certainly so in comparison to Obama.
The fiscal negligence began long before 9/11 and was made infinitely worse by the Medicare expansion and social security failure.
