Down with the establishment!! Up with households!!
I am shocked that NYT would even mention the other side.
That's more than the Dallas Morning News did.
This is a hide in plain sight article. It is published on a Saturday when the fewest people will read it. Think I'm wrong? Ask yourself if this would ever be published front page above the fold on a weekday, say Monday morning.
Articles like this enable the minded fools to delude themselves into think that the ratmedia isn't bias.
Here's my own personal survey. I'm a family law attorney and always need to know what my clients do for a living. It seems to me that a lot more of them are working for themselves or for small businesses.. and they're doing ok. They're consulting, repairing, doing hair, remodeling, selling real estate, etc. In other words, the economy is adjusting in its own way because midamerican middleclass people are hard workers and welfare isn't tempting them to do otherwise.
Yeah I was shocked to see this in the NY Times, too. Perhaps the shareholders have been grumbling about the Times' plummeting credibility.
Evan Thomas of Newsweak( a liberal BTW) says liberal media bias is worth 15 points to the Kerry campaign.

Series bias bump
I don't know if I'm going to have to don asbestos here or not.....but something has been rolling around in my mind for sometime now about all this whining about loss of jobs.
To me it is not the job of the President, or any other government entity to create jobs....that is the job of the private sector. To me if government is creating jobs it means that government is GROWING.
Mybe I'm missing something, but I don't want the government creating jobs - I just want it to create an atmosphere for the private sector to do so - particularly by less onerous taxes and regulations.
Am I totally off base here????
I do not know how they could possibly claim that Carter had good jobs, during his malaise economy.
It is also disengenious to compare bush to the depression since he inherited Clinton's resession.
No. The job of the pres is create an environment conducive to job creation. Dems want regulated hiring by large companies and the gov and pubs want large private sector growth...
Just one of the major reasons I'm a Republican. The self-employed tend toward creating small businesses, which is the largest employer of all. The Democrats only hold on small business is the income tax. And the Democrats know it and they use it.
Off base? Nonsense, you're spot on!
Thank you - that is exactly the phrase I was looking for, but it escaped me when I started typing.
I just want smaller government........period
Thanks.
I am here to serve. I knew what you were generally getting.
This dem/versus repub thing always got me. It should conservative versus lib.
I would count the real JFK in our camp ( taxes) and nixon in the (economic) lib camp because of price controls, dept of education and rapid expansion of entitilement programs...
Am I totally off base here????
No, the same sentiment is echoed in the Preamble to the Constitution of The United States.
However, the Democrats have extrapolated the phrase: "provide for the common defense" and "promote" the general welfare" to mean; "promote" the common defense and "provide for the common welfare".
You don't think Hillary wants Kerry to win, do you?
.......as well as the creation of the EPA and other federal bureaucracies. Nixon, as a politician, was abnormal. A hermaphrodite.( I wonder if they have a primary?)
