Are we THIS stupid?

Part
1
In
just one year. Remember the election in 2006?
Thought you might like to read the following: Before the 2006 elections: 1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high; 2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon; 3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%. Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen: 1) Consumer confidence plummet; 2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.90 a gallon; 3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase); 4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses); 5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars; 6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure. America voted for change in 2006, and we got it! Remember it's Congress that makes law not the President. He has to work with what's handed to him.

Taxes...Whether
Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics
enlightening and amazing.
Taxes
under Clinton 1999
Taxes under Bush 2008
Both
democratic candidates will return to the higher tax rates
It
is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above
think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest
President ever. If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both say
they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the
people that fall into the categories above can't wait for it to
happen. This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you
scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what
happened.
PART 3:

it is the Iraq war and the war on terror that is bankrupting
us. I now find that to be RIDICULOUS.
