"I do not question their patriotism. I question whether or not they understand how dangerous this world is..."
Which became much more dangerous after the invasion of Iraq. I mean, I know Bush is deluded, but how can he not know he is the most universally hated president in American history?
"The tax cuts we passed have left more than a trillion dollars in the hands of American workers, families, and small businesses, and you have used that money to fuel a strong and growing economy."
Um, my tax refund certainly did not reflect this monstrous relief. Oh, that's right! I'm not already rich, so it doesn't really apply to me. Speaking of fuel, I love how every time this "booming economy" is brought up, there is NO mention of the skyrocketing prices of oil.
"Since August 2003, the American economy has created more than 6.6 million new jobs, including over 1.7 million jobs in the past 12 months alone. Real take-home wages are up by 2.2 percent over the past year, which means an extra $1,300 for the typical family of four with two wage earners."
And mysteriously, the minimum wage is still below the poverty line. You would think a major "boom" would improve that. Well, maybe if you were a rich Republican. But then, you would just ignore that.
"Too bad you couldn't address one point made by the President. But, what could one expect from the party that has no ideas just grievances?"
Hypocrasy at its finest, folks. Dakin is the MODEL for addressing points in the posts of others, isn't he? Clue: the answer is "no".
I have yet to see the effects of this economic "boom". People received a slightly higher to much higher tax refund (for those already wealthy) and a "relief" that allowed families to pay a month or two of electric bills. For those truly in need of wage increases and relief, these miraculous tax cuts did not improve the quality of life for most of the country. Virtually all the money received in tax refunds last year was immediately siphoned into the oil companies so they could drive to work.
After the major recent debacle with Republicans in the Senate, the best they can do to try and deflect the negativity before the election is "Look at what Kerry said!", well, that's desperation at its most desperate. Bush has been saying much stupider things since he was Governor of Texas, so if that's any indication of leadership, then the Republicans are actually fueling the Democratic campaign.
Hey Bush...define "sovereign nation"! LOL
