... The economy is down the toilet. If 3-4% annual growth is "down the toilet" then most developed countries would love to be there! The poor are getting poorer Unfortunately the lower wage earners are always hit hardest by recession. I have yet to hear of a solution to that which makes economic sense. The good news is the poor of America are still well off by world standards. .. All the best jobs are being sent overseas to pay off the corporations that have supported Bush with big $$$$. I have a good job, and I know plently of other people who have good jobs and little risk of being outsourced. Also, you forget all the great jobs that are being insourced because of Rebublican economic principles. The United States is very competitive in the world economy and the envy of most of the world. We have a record number of children in poverty without healthcare We also have a record number of people, so that statement might be a bit misleading. Incidentally most of those children qualify for free health care in case you didn't know. Like most Americans, I am not convinced I want the government in the health care business. And half the americans aren't sure that that they will have a job tomorrow. So it's the government's responsibility to make people sure they will have a job tomorrow comrade? Pretty much every country that has had a system where employment was guaranteed (for example the assorted communist nations) was a dismal economic failure and ended up switching to the capitalist model. The economy is only good for the very rich. I'm not that rich, but I'm doing just fine thank you, as are most Americans. Unemployment is low by historical standards, growth is good by historical standards. We have one of the best economies on the planet! But the neocons were always out to support the rich so that is nothing new. To whom are you referring? And let's not even talk about the prescription medication fraud the neocons are pulling on the American people in favor the the theiving HMO's. Oooh, theiving HMOs! How dramatic. If only we could nationalize those evil capitalist businesses, eh comrade?! We have the best administration money can buy But that will all change in November. I wish you would hold your breath waiting!

You are confusing the Bush and Clinton administrations. Bush was govenor of Texas when Clinton and the rest of the DNC signed and fully supported NAFTA, now suddenly when the predictable happens you and the other short sighted Democrats try to blame Bush. And half the americans aren't sure that that they will have a job tomorrow. So you're claiming we're on the verge of 50% unemployment? Not by a long shot. If half the employed U.S. population is concerned about their jobs its because the DNC wants it that way. And let's not even talk about the prescription medication fraud the neocons are pulling on the American people in favor the the theiving HMO's. HMOs were created by Hillary Clinton and the Democrats, if you have issue with the job they're doing take it up with them.

Texas when Clinton and the rest of the DNC signed and fully supported NAFTA, now suddenly when the predictable happens you and the other short sighted Democrats try to blame Bush. As far as I remember only candidate that categorically rejected NAFTA was Ross Perot,and both GOP and Democratic former Presidents Carter and Reagan supported NAFTA during elections and called Perot,only candidate that opposed NAFTA "a demagoge with very deep pockets". |

Bottom line; blaming Bush for the predictable results of NAFTA and other free trade agreements begun during the Clinton years (while Bush was Gov. of Texas) is absurd.
