The economy was slowing down after clinton, but it was NOWHERE near the mess we're in now.
When looking at how Presidents handle the economy, it's important to realize it's how they play the hand they're dealt. Clinton wasn't sitting pretty after the '89 stock market crash and Bush Sr's bullshit policies.
Bush fucked up. Economies always ebb and flow, they go up and down. But instead of managing a decline, Bush (and this has been verified by white house economists) actually made the situation worse, not better.
