Legacy

The White House has “increased its estimate for next year’s deficit to nearly $490 billion, a record figure that will saddle the next president with deepening budget problems in his first year in office.” The rising deficit “marks a sharp turnaround for Bush’s fiscal legacy. He inherited a $128 billion surplus when he came into office.” - Think progress

". . . a sharp turnaround for Bush's fiscal legacy."

When has he done anything but slash rich folks' taxes and spend like a teenager with a new credit card?
