tax cuts for the rich
ignoring global warming
rolling back environmental protection
ignoring corporate mismanagement

The tax cut was a good way to quicken the recovery- thereby reducing the affect of "it's the economy stupid"

Bush didn't ignore globe warming- he spent lot's of money to further study it. As I recall there was a spike increase in funds to Science aspect of governmental spending [probably at least some of that increase went into GM studies]. I believe that occured a year or two ago.
I don't know what you referring to exactly in "rolling back environmental protection". I do recall the dems making a fuss about reducing coal generation emissions. But I believe Bush made a stricter requirement, but Dems wanted significantly more restriction which were fairly unrealistic- in other words it may have called a rollback but it wasn't. And I also heard something about reducing the restriction on logging Pac west- but I all I heard was the typical screeching about it causing the end of the world type raving- which I don't place much validity because it's usually just hype.
