Of course, the media won't mention this: it might be good news.

The President can get this info out in campaign speeches, the debates. Kerry and the Demonrats will continue to suppress this kind of info because according to them the sky is falling under President Bush.

Can't they just redefine poverty to make Bush look bad? How hard is that?

According to our Democrat counterparts, this is still the Depression. We are supposed to think soup kitchens and people with dirty feet. Fact is, many people own homes and have computers and everything like that. No, the press will not report this.

According to your chart, Nixon, Carter, Bush(41), and Bush(43) were all bad for the poverty rate. One could probably guess from the chart that the stock market doing well lowers the poverty rate.

thanks for this post...I will use these stats the next time I hear a Democrat play the class-envy game.

Term: Bush 43 AVG % ALL 11.9 AVG % FMILIES 10.2

I'm confused. 11.9 is about 1 in 8.5, but my radio keeps telling that 1 in 5 American children go to bed hungry. Yet, the 11.9% includes adults, noit just children.

Surely a CHARITY wouldn't lie or distort, just to get extra donations, would it? /sarc>
