2. Don't take this clown too seriously
He'll be outta there in a couple of months after this campaign funny money investigation runs its course.

The problem is that the party will replace him with some other tool.

3. Somebody puked out that trial baloon a week or two ago
to see if it would fly. I guess enough stupids believed it to warrant a second go round.

5. And, remember, GHWBush was not re-elected because "It's the economy, Stupid."

This is the second Bush recession. Had Clinton remained president, he would have inspired the country out of any recession that started on his watch. He had this glow. The Bushes are extremely unhappy, complaining, depressed people. They depress everyone around them. Scott McClellan is one of the most cheerful people around, and even he soured on the Bush crowd.

A slowdown does not necessarily end in a recession if leadership inspires people to faith in investing and providing jobs. That's what Obama will do, and he will succeed.

6. Since when is a surplus a recession?
Again I hate to be a pain in the ass on this but how come nobody asks about the 2.3 Trillion dollars gone missing at the Pentagon on 09/10/01? Did Bush inherit that too.? Like 9/11. We all deserve to know where that money went and the truth about 9/11. I mean what better time to steal all that money when the country is worried about being attacked than 2.3 Trillion dollars. Well now someone should ask. I have written to President Obama's site but nothing yet. This is outrageous.

7. Oh, I love logic statement quizzes!

If a surplus is a recession... a house values decline/stock market crash/credit crunch/massive unemployment is a _________

8. 2.3 Trillion
I agree Politicalboi..I can't understand why people weren't marching in the streets with pitchforks and torches about this 'missing' several Trillion dollars and why Rumsfeld wasn't completely disgraced and thrown in jail for this. Instead Bush gives him some kind of medal(medal of Freedom or some such horseshit)
