Bush's Accomplishments

From Eric Alterman's Altercation today:

"Things to remember about George Bush’s presidency as we go into the 2000 election: “The Dow Jones Industrial Average has declined by nearly 2000 points since he took office; unemployment has risen to 5.7% from 4.2%. In the six quarters of the Bush presidency, growth of gross domestic product has averaged 1.1%, down from 3.6% in the last six quarters of the Clinton presidency. In the Journal/NBC poll, only 38% of Americans believe the country is safer than a year ago.” The Wall Street Journal, September 10, 2002"
