Bush and the GOP know that the Democrat who comes to office in 2009 will have to implement some very painful measures to begin making up for the Bush train wreck.
So, their thinking probably is, "Hey, let's f*ck things up even MORE while we have the chance! The worse we make things, the more unpopular the next president will be. And since that's going to be a Demcocrat, then, all bets are off. Let's PARTY!!!!!!!"
