Really? So Bush did nothing to recover from one of the shortest recessions on record historically? Despite the first major attack on the homeland? Didn't pass new tax legislation? Didn't pass new legislation to discourage corporate fraud?
And now we're talking about overhauling the IRS, more or less eliminating it using the KISS principle (flat tax system), creating individual/personal wealth in a new retirement structure that avoids the corruption common to gov't programs, continuing to modernize our volunteer military.
What exactly would you have suggested?
