The piece surveys George W. Bush's tenure from 9/11 to the 2008 financial meltdown, noting two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, tax cuts, education policy, and failed Social Security reform. It highlights record deficits, unemployment above 11 million, housing foreclosures, a plunging Dow, and waning public support as Bush steps down. It contrasts early promise with late-year realities and warnings about historical judgment.
