The point is: the recession under Bush's watch proved to be far more dangerous, far more difficult to resolve than previous economic downturns. Millions of American jobs were lost. Banks failed. Houses were foreclosed. Millions were left holding the bag. It takes strong policy decisions to kick start the economy after such a disaster. I don't think enacting the same policies that cause the disaster will prove to be a wise decision, do you?
