Today Senator Tom Daschle again attacked President Bush's popular tax relief package that was passed with bipartisan support that included 40 Democrat votes in the U.S. Congress. Daschle used the speech to unveil a Democrat stimulus plan, 93 days after President Bush proposed his economic security proposal to jump-start the American economy.
Senator Daschle's speech, taken directly from the James Carville political playbook, is a clear indication that Democrat obstruction of the President's agenda on economic security, trade promotion authority and energy, hurt the Democrats in the eyes of the American people.
Daschle recently admitted a bad economy is good for the party out of power. "The economy always plays a major role" in elections, Daschle said in a recent interview. "The degree to which the economy is not doing well, that is the degree to which the party out of power does better." (James Kuhnhenn, "Daschle Key To Crafting Stimulus Plan That Both Sides Of The Aisle Will Accept," Knight Ridder, December 4, 2001).
The American people support President Bush and his vision to reenergize our economy. As a result, Democrats are now playing catch-up, proposing a 'new' stimulus package after three months of blocking the President's plan in the Senate.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Let Senator Daschle and the obstructionist Democrats know you don't buy their budget games. Tell Senator Daschle you are one of the 63% of Americans who approve of the President's economic efforts and urge him to vote on the bipartisan economic security package proposed by the President.
Thank you for making calls and letting Senator Daschle know you can see through his charades. I hope you will pass this message along to everyone you know who will help.
The events of 9/11 were certainly a shock to the economy. It appears to be mild, however, compared to what Dashle and the Democrats are doing to purposely undermine the economy of the United States.
Their greed is evident in wealth grabbing to blackmail the voters in unnecessary spending and old tax the rich rhetoric.
But they've reached a new level with an out-and-out lie. That somehow higher taxes are good in a recession.
