That's the first time I've ever seen "Bush" and "articulating" used in the same sentence.
The fellow was President. If he had true concerns about these issues, he could have used his bully pulpit to rally Congressional support (as he did to start a war against non-existent WMD's or pass Medicare drug benefits or No Child Left Behind).
As for McCain, even in the wake of the Lehmann Bros. collapse, he publicly stated that the American economy was in fine shape. McCain defines sclerotic IMHO.
