"Thanks for sharing."

Ok smartass, you miss the point. Terrorism is less of a problem now, but that is all GWB talks about. The economy is of more concern to most people because they are being hit in the pocket right now or are threatened by layoffs; however, a very small number of people are currently affected by terrorism.

I don't miss the point at all. You think Bush is making terrorism a big deal for political gain, and minimizing its importance. You think the economy is a much bigger deal.

I have news for you. Most people are doing just fine. Check the unemployment figures. Well over 90% of us are going to our jobs just like we ever have. The stock market concerns us, but so do a lot of things. Especially terrorists who have continually tried to kill us and would still like to if they get the opportunity.

Sorry, but I'm not buying it. The war on terrorism is real. Al-Qaida is real. Bury your head in the political sand if you wish, but don't ask us to join you. We're not that foolish.

Where have you been? For the last month W has mostly been speaking about the economy with a few words about Iraq thrown in. He has not just been talking about terrorism. Besides - if he was - so what? Terrorism is what a President has more impact on than the economy. As far as the economy is concerned, W and Congress should be talking about tax cuts. As far as the House goes - that's the House Republican's problem and they should out there beating the living crap out of these traitorous democrats. Gephardt and Co have opened themselves wide open by playing politics when national security is at stake. They should called to task. One man, even a President, can only do so much in carrying and dragging his teammates down the field.
