But Democrats said Mr. Bush's rosy picture of the overall economy was out of focus.What else is new?

As a certified, card carrying BushBot, I am irritated that Bush would be pandering to the populists.

The Pod-Bush has assumed the identity of the real Bush.

Just like Rush says he won't stop until everyone agrees with him. W won't stop until everyone disagrees.

Some CEOs get paid waaaaay too much, even if they do bad work.

Can we start by cutting the pay of Senators, Congresscritters, and their staffs?

Egads, what other Dem platitudes is this president going to co-opt? Maybe he wants to make abortions "safe, legal, and rare" too?

Ain't it wonderful to have a true conservative in the White House?
Yeah, I know... it could have been lots worse. But the (R) after the name doesn't mean squatzoli anymore.

President Bush yesterday said there is a growing "income inequality" gap between rich and poor Americans, and told companies they should rethink the giant compensation packages they offer top executives. Usually the smartest move a CEO can make is screw up the company so much, they are forced to give him a lucrative buyout package so they can fire him.

I think you may be on to something. The pod was emplaced sometime during the night the democrats took control of the House and Senate and left us with a Stepford-Mr Rogers who looked like our President....
A Harvard MBA ought to be chiding companies about their responsibility to their shareholders, not their profits.

I agree. However, this is a problem for the companie's Board of Directors, not the Federal Government.

To point out income inequality in the interest of promoting trade agreements...sounds good to me.
He's got a rough road ahead trying to get trade promotion auhority renewed with a Dem congress. If he doesn't get it, it will affect lower income workers adversely.

Yeah, I know... it could have been lots worse. But the (R) after the name doesn't mean squatzoli anymore.Agreed, and that is the problem with the lesser of two evils we always seem to be faced with. The lessers get less and the evils get more evil.

and told companies they should rethink the giant compensation packages they offer top executivesAnd that's going to help the "puuuur" exactly how?

I don't believe I heard him suggesting a solution that involved the federal government.

He's just doing this to try and get dems to llike him..but they would still have W if he drove up and down Times Square tossing bags of $100 bills out the windows on New Years Eve.

"If he doesn't get it, it will affect lower income workers adversely."
???
George Bush has been a class warrior throughout his presidency, definancing border and immigration enforcement, attacking the middle class with HB-1 and open borders.
All for the reason of short term juicing profits of his pals.
He calls that "growth."

"...The lessers get less and the evils get more evil."
That's the inevitable result when one chooses pragmatism over principle.
