Dow tanks and Bush* radio address brags on economy.
This administration, aside from being a joke, seems proud to LIE to the American people at every possible opportunity. One day after the Dow tanks over TWO HUNDRED POINTS, our illustrious president is telling us how wonderful and thankful we should be to him for our robust economy.

1. He's again using that crap about more Americans owning their
homes now than ever before. But, from what I understand, that's been the case with every administration, and is not an economic indicator, but a reflection of the size of population.

Great fodder for Dem leaders; that is, if only they understood such things.

4. irony deficient.
When the Dow closed over 11,000 all the crowing about how we're back and stronger than ever. Worst slide in 3 years and we're back and stronger than ever!

:eyes:


p.s. We need a smilie that tears its hair out.

5. ..and barely a mention in the media.
When it topped eleven thousand, pundits were all over the airwaves touting the tax cuts and how they are now 'kickin' in'. Utter Bullshit. Where are the dems????

7. Recently, when the Dow closed above 11000, Lucianne.com.....
had a bit about how libs won't blame it on Bush. Not a single reference to what the Dow was when chimpie took office.
