Cheney criticizes Kerry in Iowa campaign stop

[Nambe]

A frisky AP writer

.. "What we're hearing from the other side is failed thinking, thinking of the past and we're not going back," Cheney said told a crowd of about 1,000 people in a suburb of Des Moines.

On the day in which the Labor Department said productivity of U.S. workers rose at an annual rate of 2.9 percent in the spring, the slowest increase since late 2002, Cheney said: "This is a strong economy. It will grow stronger. The Bush tax cuts are working."

His comments also came days after the Labor Department said just 32,000 jobs were created last month. Some 1.1 million jobs have been lost since President Bush took office. ..

1. When they bash, it's called criticizing.

But when we criticize, it's called bashing.

Got it?

[DFWJock]

2. Yeah

Who wants to go back "to the past" of peace and prosperity?

[Nite Owl]

3. Thinking of the past

Oh yeah those Clinton years with good pay and plentiful jobs. Peace breaking out. Let's not go back to those days.

Does Cheney even realize just how stupid he sounds, who wouldn't want the Clinton years back? It worked and they should just 'get over it'.

4. They'll never get over it.

They hate when they aren't in power almost as much as they hate someone with different viewpoints whom has success with them.

5. More like it...

.. "What we're hearing from the other side are intelligent ideas, intelligent strategies that could work and we're not going back," Cheney said told a crowd of about 1,000 people in a suburb of Des Moines.

7. Will there be any Kerry campaign stops in Minnesota in the near future?

8. Trickle Down Economics, Dickster

That's a failed idea of the past. And it's all you have to sell, which is why Kerry consistently outpolls Bush on economic issues.

Reality, Dickster. It's a bitch.

9. Oooooh a whole one thousand people showed up!

That's about 1/20th of the crowd that show up to see our candidates. Cheney and his boy wonder are in big trouble.

13. The Bush-Cheney Farewell Tour is not much of a draw these days. n/t

[Blue Gardener]

10. Failed thinking of the past

That would be from the Reagan and Bush the elder years. Please, let's not go back there.

12. Of course he bashes Kerry.....He has no credentials of his own!!!

[Kierkegaard]

14. Sure he does

He has an impressive resume chock full of deceit, trickery, exploitation and cronyism. Oh, and lets not forget his profane language skills.

[OK_DemX2]

15. Shrub's policies and advisors would be the past,

considering they all worked for Reagan or his daddy. Incidentally, how can you claim to not be a Washington insider, then fill your cabinet with Washington insiders and lobbyist?? Do people even use their God given brains any longer???

[BeatleBoot]

16. We're Doomed!

Who could have forseen this?

The VP being the attack dog of the opposition candidate?

Shocking, I tell you. Shocking.

I'm scared, hold me....

:scared:
