"Bush is satisfied with where we are, but Kerry believes we can do better"
Bush radio ads rip Kerry 'misery tour'

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5263378/

“After recession, 9-11 and war, today our economy has been growing for 10 straight months,” the radio ads say. “We’ve met serious challenges and things are beginning to turn around.”

The ads then are tailored to each state. For example, one ad says: “Here in Nevada, things are looking up, too. The economy has added 50,000 more jobs than a year ago and the unemployment rate has dropped below the national average to 4.1 percent.”

At the end, the ads mock Kerry: “What does John Kerry say? He’s still pessimistic, on a misery tour talking about days of malaise and the Great Depression.”

Chad Clanton, a Kerry campaign spokesman, rebuked the Bush campaign’s assertion that the economy is strong. “It’s not strong for most of the middle class. Bush is satisfied with where we are, but Kerry believes we can do better,” he said.

5. Our economy has been growing?
Somebody should tell the actual economy.

I bet this "fact" turns out to be in the same category as "terrorism is at its lowest ever".

6. Stupidest. Ad. Ever.
What kind of a knucklehead campaigns by reminding people that we've had war, terrorist attacks and recession on his watch?
