This chant has been going on for quite some time. Doom and gloom from the economic pessimists has been political sport for seven years, even though the Bush boom just celebrated its sixth anniversary. The current expansion is now in its 74th month — 17 months longer than the average 57-month business cycle since World War II...

This sort of fiscal and monetary coordination will continue the Bush boom for years to come. Though mainstream media outlets will never admit it, President Bush has kept America safe and prosperous. But history will eventually judge him in a more kindly light.

You fail once again to read with comprehension. The text you quoted is not a commentary on the future but a survey of the past. The MSM spent nearly every year of the Bush presidency predicting a Recession and probably hoping for a Depression just so they could report on it and call themselves prescient, all while blaming Bush for it.

When it finally happened after 74 months, and happened for reasons unrelated to the Administration's fiscal policy, they still found a way to try and blame Bush for it.
