On the heels of the outgoing president's last White House press conference, which took place this morning, the White House has posted "fact sheets" [PDF] defending the policies President Bush has pursued during his tenure.
Topics addressed include protecting America during a "global war on terror," military transformation, defense against weapons of mass destruction and Bush's "freedom agenda." Domestic items include No Child Left Behind, global health initiatives, faith-based and community initiatives and judicial appointments.
Notably missing on the domestic side is a fact sheet on the economy. The current economic crisis is relegated to two paragraphs at the bottom of the "Tax Relief" page, in which Congress is blamed for ignoring Bush's early calls to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
