George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years.

The first six years… the economy was fine.

A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;

2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon or lower…;

3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.

4) the DOW JONES hit a record high–14,000+

5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large !!!…

But American's said they wanted 'CHANGE'! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress
and yes!!!– we got 'CHANGE' all right. In the PAST YEAR this is what has happened:

1) Consumer confidence has plummeted ;

2) Gasoline is now over $4 and higher per gallon & it's climbing !!!;

3) Unemp loyment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase);

4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices are still dropping;

5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low ~~$2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS ! YES,IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR
CHANGE…AND WE SURE GOT A GOOD DOSE OF IT! ….

REMEMBER THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES… ONLY CONGRESS.

AND WHAT HAS CONGRESS DONE IN THE LAST TWO YEARS ???? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING…NOT A DAMN THING !!!!

NOW THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT CLAIMS HE IS GOING TO REALLY GIVE US CHANGE ALONG WITH A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS !!!!

JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YOU THINK WE CAN ALL STAND ????

I think it's about time you and others get their heads on straight and elect the better candidate….Vote with your head not with your so called party affiliation

After what - this will not end!

Did you not forget the $300 BILLION Housing bailout of last month, the current $641 BILLION Spending Bill, the gifting of Bear Sterns to JP Morgan, and the bailout of FANNIE and FREDDIE.

So long taxpayer rationalizes they (Congress) will not stop robbing you! I like the idea that Congress should put their pension into this plan then they would have a stake in the game!

By the way, I was the former budget writer for a State Governor - at the end of the day politians only care about being reelected - NOT you!
