Please help me itimize Bush's failure by comparing then and now

[ThomWV]

I would like to put together a list of his failures. Can you help with factual example?

Example: DOW Jones Industrial Average looses 23%, from 10,582 on innaguration day 2001 to 8,212 today.

What have you got numbers for; poverty rate, unemployment rate, high school drop out rate, cancer deaths, incarceration rate? Anything you've got will help.
