Say what you want about immigration, gas prices, hurricanes, and wars, but Bush has definitely done what it takes to make the economy go.

[VRWCmember]

Bush's fault.

[MARKUSPRIME]

Yep good news.Im sure the liberals will be slitting their wrists and jumping off skyscrapers today. :)

[atomicpossum]

They're just waiting to blame him for resultant inflation.

[pleikumud]

The success of capitalism and freedom are always good news, except to communists, socialists and Democrats.

How many quarters of expansion will it take before the MSM stops talking about the "year-end rut" in the lead paragraph?

[KevinDavis]

Worst economy since.. oh never mind..

[cbkaty]

Good news travels slow............

but Bush has definitely done what it takes to make the economy go.

and virtually no one KNOWS!

For all you Lou Dobbs fans... I bet he doesn't even talk about this on his program tonight.

This is the best economy in the History of this Country. President Bush and his tax cuts have expanded small business like no other President, period, dot, Bingo!

The only part of the Economy that is in a recession is the Stone-age Press.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[jveritas]

Excellent news. This should be in the breaking news section.

It's like the better the economy does the lower his polls go It's ridiculous. You could repeal every tax in the land and give every driver a $1,000 but if gas prices go up a nickel they'll say the economy is in shambles. People are just stuck on stupid I suppose.

[spikeytx86]

Well it's not the best economy in our history but so far it has proved to be one of our best and will more then likely top the so called "Clinton" economy.

Damn skippy on the press though!

[MattinNJ]

On the WOT, Judges, the economy, and sheer decency Bush gets an A+ in my book. On immigration and spending I would have to give him a D. Not that anyone asked me, of course.

[laconic]

ITs not good news; its inflationary and it is the direct result of a Congress unrestrained by the "conservative" (at election time) Bush pouring hundreds of billions of dollars the government does not have into an unfunded war and dubious social projects. The American public ends up paying for growth of this sort and its done through the devaluing of their savings and incomes.

[spikeytx86]

This cant be, it's like reducing the costs of labor and capital have some how caused people to produce and consume more it's crazy, must be a second burst from the Clinton economy.

[Brilliant]

It just proves that the media is moulding the polls and the public opinion to suit its bias.
