11. Unemployment is at a 25 year low?
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 01:35 PM by HughBeaumont
Uh, no it's not. The Unemployment rate is cooked worse than a well-done steak. And the Bewshconomy is running at a net loss in job creation this year. Not ONCE have the job creation stats gone over the 150k monthly benchmark needed to break even this year.

The Dow's performance means shiznit for working families. a) adjust that for inflation and get back to me on that stratospheric total and b) It's only risen, what, 1500 points since 2001? Not something I'd be bragging about, especially since it's in the 5 digits and was once dropped to 4 during the Bewsh debacle.

Taxes are low? Definitely for the super rich, but the middle class and poor are getting soaked.

No terrorist attacks since 2001? DC Snipers? Anthrax to the democrats? An entire Metro area running to their cars for 2 months? Those don't count? This isn't even COUNTING the overseas attacks or the "Liquid Plot that was Not". Bewsh HAS NOT MADE US SAFER YOU IDIOTS!

Here's a new direction - HOW ABOUT CAPTURING HIM? Oh wait, then what easy target would your sheep have left to fear?

Saddam was OUR bastard. As was Osama. Just remember that. Rummy shook hands with him and armed him.

Marriage is between TWO HUMAN BEINGS OF LEGAL AGE YOU FUCK. That's the new direction, get out of the 50s.

Terrorists are CREATED as a result of this debacle and our "resolve". American soldiers and Iraqi citizens are dying at a horrid rate . . . oh wait, I forgot, Repukes don't give two shits about anyone but THEMSELVES.
