Voting For Change???

GT Charlie sent this in. It's worth noting...

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

It is broke. Let's change congress!

I LOVE THIS! THIS PUTS THE FACTS ON THE TABLE! I AM TIRED OF OUR PRESIDENT, GEORGE BUSH, TAKING THE FALL FOR OUR ECONOMY.

George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six of those 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

3) the unemployment rate was 4.5% - about the lowest on record

4) the DOW JONES hit a record high - $14,164 (on 9/9/07)

5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacationing overseas, living large...

But American's wanted 'CHANGE!' So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yep...we got 'CHANGE' all right. Since that fateful day:

1) Consumer confidence has plummeted

2) Gasoline is now around $4 a gallon

3) Unemployment is up to over 5% (a 10% increase)

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

5) over 2 million American homes are in, or near, foreclosure

6) as I write, THE DOW is probing an other low - $11,215 (7/2/08) - $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!

YEP , IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE!...AND WE SURE AS HELL GOT IT!!! NOW 'B.O.', the DEM'S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT--CLAIMS HE'S GONNA REALLY GIVE US 'CHANGE!'JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND?
