Poll question: "The Bush Economic Miracle" - does it adequately describe the last 8 years?

Edited on Mon Jan-26-09 11:46 AM by tom_paine

I was pondering how to mentally package and frame (god damn your souls to eternal torment in HELL, Bushies, for forcing me to understand such radioactive and vile ideas on human manipulation) what to say to people in as clear and brief a voice as possible.

This is what I came up with.

Is it a good label to affix to the Bushie, something which everyone can relate to and understand in a second, particularly the bitter Soviet-Era gallows humor it conjures up from among a bitter, defeated people, which up until the election of Obama (and it is still not certain he will change this) WE HAVE BEEN.

Do you think this "works"?

5. Try "Reagan Economic Miracle" to "adequately describe the last 30 years"

Including the finale of trickle down under Bush
