Even my Republican friends complain that Bush's economic policies are
disasterous.


Rescuing the economy from the collapse of the Clinton bubble has not been easy
but is well underway. We are in, I think, the third consecutive highest growth
quarter in twenty years and the employment rate is over 94% and increasing.

The economy officialy recovered in late 2002. We are already in our
second year of the good economy.

Big Whoop!!

How else can that be read other than that, in your opinion, holding
these decorations is a "Big Whoop," a derisive expression?

If I find a man holds the Silver Star, he has my respect for his service
to our country unless I *know* he received the honor fraudulently, as in
the case of Lyndon Johnson, for example. I do not say "Silver Star? Big
whoop!"

The comparison is between two fascists: Kerry and Hitler.

LOL.

Liberals never cease to amaze me -- for all their self-proclaim
intellectual
capacity, their very basis claims intelligence is impotent. Then they
prove
it.

You resort to name calling? What are you going to call me next, a Nazi?
Of course, you called Kerry a fascist, so I suppose nothing is too
over-the-top for you; maybe you'll make me a Satanist next time.

Perhaps I misunderstood. If you were not referring to Kerry's criticism
of the actions of the US government and the US military, then whom,
specifically, do you claim Kerry slandered and what, specifically, are
the
false accusations that the alleged slander consisted of?

Perhaps you should read a transcript of his testimony.

I have indeed read a transcript of Kerry's pivotal Winter Soldier
Investigation testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on
April 22, 1971. I repeat my question: what, specifically, do you see as a
false accusation against any person in Kerry's testimony? What is the
accusation in question, and what is your evidence that it was false?

Do you have a clue about ANYTHING?

He's a dollar...buy a clue!!

Do you have a clue about how to have a civil exchange of ideas? Or are you
only able to converse with people who agree with you? If you're going to
deluge this newsgroup with repetitive, off-topic proclamations of your
opinions (and apparently no thought fleets through your mind that you
consider too trite or trivial to warrant everyone's attention here), you
could at least refrain from responding with vacuous insults when others
challenge you to support your assertions.

Clinton WINS! Actually, he's the only one for whom I seen any evidence on
this front. Where is Ken Starr when we really need him?

You mean where is Monica when we really need her.

I once heard an economist jokingly define a recession as when his
friends lose their jobs. A depression, on the other hand, was when HE
lost his job.

The problem with this recovery is that it's a technical recovery only.
GNP has stopped decreasing quarter per quarter, that's the official
definition of the end of a recovery. That's the way it was defined
when I got my econ. degree and still is. But, that says nothing about
jobs still decreasing, and the ones that are being created are more
often contract temporary positions than permanent ones.

Also, indications are that the net icome for the working public, ie
those that make the majority of their income through jobs, has
decreased. Greenspan encouraged a housing boom to replace the dot com
boom. That's softened the impact of the recession greatly. But it's
a limited thing. People can only refinance and spend so much.

So, yes. We're technically out of recession, and I'll be happy to
take any good news I can get. But in this case it doesn't necessarily
mean much.

Hey...
I haven't said anything. I am not the one who causes the political debates.
I simply stated that I was watching MSNBC recently and learned that John
Kerry, a democrat, is a certified pilot, I saw a quick episode of him flying
a plane in left seat. End of story right there. If you ask me for opinion of
who should run the country, I would explain that is based on their political
agenda, not based on their flying status.

Toks,
Baby Bush is/was a Pilot as well.
Just remember that they are Politicians first and pilots second. They
will still do what they think will make people feel better. One level
headed individual can do little to stop over five hundred idiots.

There is no way to recognize what kind of plane, but it is definitely a
low
wing. Just wanted to share what I saw.

It's not all gloom and doom, GDP and personal income are up, unemployment is
down; each of these are forecast to continue improving through 2004. If only
we could get Bush to veto some of the drunken crazed pork barrell spending by
congress things would look even better.


Jan 2004, Bureau of Labor Statistics: “...the unemployment rate, at 5.7 percent,
continued to trend down, the of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today.”


Jan, 2004 “Wall Street Journal: “The economy has momentum heading into 2004.
Economists see solid growth, improvement in the labor market and growing
corporate profits.

Economists who participated in the semiannual forecasting survey expect growth
at around a 4% inflation-adjusted annualized rate throughout the year - starting
with growth of nearly 4.5% in the first quarter. They believe unemployment will
ease toward 5.5% and profits will grow 15.9%.”


December 2003, Bureau of Economic Analysis: “Personal income increased $44.0
billion, or 0.5 percent, and disposable personal income (DPI) increased $39.2
billion, or 0.5 percent, in November...”
