2. Sure do miss the Clinton/Gore years
We had jobs, we had a surplus, we had peace.

It is going to take so much to get this country back into shape once Kerry takes office and it's not going to be easy.

3. Dems are good for jobs and more fiscally responsible
It's a fact! Thanks for pointing to get another graphic illustration.

You can also go to the WH's own website and see that each lear, Jr expects less and less fiscal responsibility from himself each year. An example:

In 2002, after the terrorist attacks and stock market plunge, they expected their economic policies to produce a $61 billion surplus in 2005. In 2003, they lowered that expectation to a $208 billion deficit. Their budget presented in 2004 lowered the expectation further to a $363 billion deficit.

Bush: dismal accomplishments and ever-lowering self-expectations.

9. Great chart
Whats more the repoogs always lowball their deficit and unemployment figures, so the contrast should be even higher.
