Well, that's at least in part because the '01 cuts were about keeping a campaign promise, not about being a tax-cut stimulus. If we get past the politics of it, then maybe we can fairly assess the outcomes.
Of course, it's also not the point to compare the realized growth to any historic average, but rather to the **unknowable** growth rate that would have happened but for the tax-cut/spending stimulus.
