Kerry's running mate, John Edwards, gently put the numbers in perspective. He noted that more than 300,000 children were born in the United States last month, suggesting that only 32,000 new jobs showed "we're not quite keeping up."

How did this goofball ever get to be a lawyer?

How do voters think that electing a widow-chaser and trial lawyer that are going to raise taxes is going to help the economy?

I think if Bushs main tax cuts had phased in in 2002 rather than 2003, he would be 10 points ahead right now. Just like his father, Bush seems to have timed his recovery to come just in time for his opponent to prosper on.

And yes those children were born not aborted by both of these hypocrites.

This is a serious problem. Edwards should get his buddies at Planned Parenthood to kill more of these useless eaters.

Kerry can spin it however he wants - the facts remain.

Fact #1 The economy still grew.

Fact #2 32,000 new jobs were still created.

Fact #3 Unemployment still went down.

Fact #4 For Kerry to have a chance at the WH, he has to make facts 1-3 appear to be "bad things".

Fact #5 It ain't gonna happen.

Notice, of course, that Kerry has never explained the "need" to raise taxes, because there is none, other than generating more class division and hate, for votes. The old tired Dem mantra, "TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH" keeps coming out of their mouths, for the benefit of the grossly ignorant who have no idea who really pays the tax burden in this country.

And of course, a fine piece of journalism from the New Left Times, totally unbiased, and presenting the complete and truthful unbiased news. My God, that rag has gone to the dogs...and become the mouthpiece for the far left Dems.

More abortions! Think of how that will prop up the stem-cell markets! Democrats are such brilliant economists.

John Kerry and his horse walked into a bar.

The bartender asked, "Why the long faces."


Guess the economy is looking pretty good to most. The liberal nominees are sour pusses. I would hate to be a liberal democrat. I would be depressed all the time.

Please, please, please tell me that the quote by Edwards is a spoof.

If a politician in a small pseudo-socialist country like Sweden say something as silly as that the world doesn't have to care, but the candidate for VP in the USA...

How dumb can you get? No wonder the Dow tanked yesterday. Just the remotest possibility that Kerry/Edwards would be allowed to run the country for the next 4 years - scary!

"The economy doesn't go away as a campaign issue," said Andrew Kohut, the director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. "And with no sign of progress, it really puts the Republicans on the defensive."

The economy is doing GREAT. Fastest growth in 2 decades. Highest employment ever. Productivity gains in the past 4 years have been tremendous.

Folks, help me out - point me to the overall economic numbers. We need an 'economy fact sheet' to rebut this nonsense.

Fact #6 Kerry has the biased media on his side to make appearances look worse than reality.

With all due respect, it's apparent you don't see the problem with this, to wit:

IF Skerry-Backwards do get elected, God forbid, Two Year Olds will be forced to work do to their new 98% tax bracket (98% of Americans get taxed on 98% of everything)

:-)

Excellent comment. I wish some journalist would ask Edwards (or Kerry) about that statement and use your line.

My grandfather didn't start working in the mill until he was twelve. Shouldn't newborns wait until they are weaned before they start flipping burgers.

All that could happen is if Kerry gets elected, the media will suddenly proclaim the economy is wonderful and great, even when it becomes worse. Just as the Clinton economy was always bad --- jobs were being outsourced at a very high rate in the early 90's but the media ignored it all.

I am not sure what they are doing, frankly. This election is Bush's to lose, if he does not play it right, in spite of the blatant stupidity and criminality of the Kerry campaign and the media.

Bush MUST take a hard line, and attack the junk yard dogs of the left, at their level...hard and nasty. I would agree he must dump the "politically correct" soft-talk language and right now.

"Edwards: newborns out pace jobs"

Their fix?

It's easy - Destroy the newborns! It is only "fetal tissue" after all, isn't it? And we can then use it for creating clones of clintons, kennedy, kerry, etc - who could deserve it more?
