Bush's Terrible Economic Month
This month is only half over, but look at the economic news so far:

- Budget Deficit is a record 400 Billion+

- Only 32,000 jobs created in July

- Oil prices top $45 a barrel and climbing

- Interest rates raised a quarter point

- Record Trade Deficit

- Congressional Budget Office analysis shows that Bush's tax cuts have shifted the tax burden from the rich to the middle class

- Dow drops 300 points and declining

- Nasdaq is declining

- Inflation is up


I know that I'm missing something here. If anyone else wants to add something, feel free.

1. But CNN and Faux keep telling us that the economy is strong
and that we're "turning the corner". Are you saying that Bush and his media whores are lying to the people?

No need to answer that BTW.

Bush: I think results matter...vote for John Kerry
