Kerry will get no where with his argument, not only because the economy is rebounding after the Bush tax cuts, but also because Kerry himself has proposed no alternative economic plan, except tax increases. I don't think anyone believes that tax increases will stimulate the economy.

In fact, if Kerry and his liberal buddies had not delayed and reduced the size of Bush's tax cuts, we might never have had a recession at all.

Kerry has studied the Beer Hall Putsch. He has no chance of gaining support except through lies that instills fear.
Dummycrats.

It also means that the VP choice is either Vilsak or Gephardt

We have to Judge the Bus economy on the last eyar because it took two years to get back the economy Clinton dropped into the toilet.

I don't think anyone believes that tax increases will stimulate the economy.

Neither will the interest rate hikes that Greenspan is gonna hit us with because Dubya's been spending like a drunken sailor.

Greenspan says Fed ready to act on inflation

Still waiting for some Republican leader to say:

"We don't know why John Kerry is running for President. He's already King of the Second-Guessers!"

If I were in poverty, living under a bridge, I'd still consider I was better off under Bush.

One thing that hasn't gotten much play is the stat behind our 4.2% GDP growth.

You see, our most recent Quarter's GDP growth was published as being 4.2%...but what most people don't know is that figure was inflation adjusted down.

The actual growth in the size of our economy was 7.9%.

What was published was the more conservative 4.2% inflation-adjusted figure.

But salaries, spending, business expansions, new manufacturing, home sales, et al were all contributing to a 7.9% growth in the size of our economy.

7.9%

Our economy is flat out BOOMING!

What kind of job was that? Journalist or politician!

Can't wait to hear Kerry's concession speech in November.

[RagingBull]

The campaign issued a report Monday indicating that 1.6 million households filed for bankruptcy in 2003, up a third from 2000.

And what does John F Kerry recommend? Not everyone can find a wealthy widow to sponge off of.
