This has to make you think a little bit, if not then, keep your blinders on!
George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six, the economy was fine.
A little over one year ago:
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high
2 1/2 year high? What about the fact that the consumer confidence was
far higher under Clinton than Bush?
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
And less under Clinton.
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.
And it was lower under Clinton.
4) The DOW JONES hit a record high--14,000 +
And it came down when Bush fell asleep at the wheel and let people buy
mortgages that they could not afford by failing to regulate the market
properly.
5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations on the
high seas, living large!
Yet there are more Americans without health insurance than under
Clinton. Some living large!
But American's wanted CHANGE!
We got Bush. Now, we want someone with a clue.
So, in 2006, they voted in a Democratic Congress�and yep - - we got
'CHANGE' all right.
In the PAST YEAR:
1) Consumer confidence has plummeted
2) Gasoline has been over $4 a gallon!
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase)
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS,
and prices are still dropping
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) As I write, THE DOW is probing another low ~ ~ 11,316 - -$2.5
TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR�STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!
These are problems that were created by the incompetence of Bush.
From your argument, we need a Democratic President. Go Obama.
You're full of *** Jeff.
You say that every time you can't counter the other person's claims,
IOW every time you're full of *** yourself.
Explain exactly what actions by the Congressional Democrats have
resulted in the problems you've cited. After all, the Democrats
control Congress by only a one-person margin and haven't been able to
exploit their new status at all, thanks their ineffective
organization, a president who suddenly started to issue vetoes in
2006, and a highly effective Republican minority.
