The campaigns dispute the effect that the jobs numbers will have on voters. David Winston, a Republican pollster, said the numbers were disappointing but insisted that voters would not judge the president on them. "It's like if you have a baseball player like Barry Bonds and he goes 0 for 4 one day and you decide to trade him, as opposed to looking at the totality of his performance for the entire season," he said.


Maybe he should have said Albert Pujols.

Chemical filled?

Arrogant?
Not very popular?
Nothing in his life but trivial accomplishments?

Sounds apt.

1. If they want to compare Dubya to that prick, by all means.

But I certainly haven't seen Bush hitting 72 political home runs.

2. What if...

the player goes 0 for 3 1/2 years???

3. More like Eddie Gaedel...the midget who played for St Louis

...a one trick pony who gets walks because of the small strike zone.

7. What An Idiot

The assertion embodied in that statement is that the economy is fine and that the latest job numbers were an anomaly.....


That's a crock of shit...


Bush will be the first pres since Herbert Hoover to have a net loss of jobs during his term....
