Only kinda. Unemployment was 24.9% when Roosevelt took office in 1933. Twelve years later it was less than 2%.

Under George Bush, the following economic events have come to pass; we have
* emptied the U.S. surplus and bankrupted the Treasury.
* shattered the record for biggest annual deficit in this country's history.
* set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period in this country's history.
* set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market.
* overseen 2 million Americans losing their jobs.
* set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases of any presidency in this country's history.
Bush entered office with the strongest economy in US history and in less than two years turned every single economic category heading straight down, record unemployment being one of the achievements.
