"You people do realize that there is still a net job-loss of over a million jobs, right"?
WRONG! The economy was in the crapper well before klintoon retired from office. You see, I have owned my own business for over 30 years, and we were suffering a receding economy, tethered to higher prices starting from the fall of 1999. It is a proven fact that the recession began in October of 2000. President Bush did not take office until January 2001. It was (11 MONTHS) into his first year in office, before any of President Bush's economic programs were implemented. We were in a deep recession by MARCH (according to OFFICIAL US GOVERNEMNT FIGURES)! President Bush has overseen the fastest growing economy in the history of the US. The economy is BOOMING, and it is not the kind of house that klintoon built on shifting sands!!!
"Kerry can also talk about the deficit, which is the largest in history"!
Oh you little troll!!!! klintoon's tech bust, his overseeing the conditions leading to Enron, Global Crossing, MCI, etc, coupled with his ignoring Al Qaeda and its declared war on the US (and 9/11 which was planned, manned, and set in place during klintoon's watch), all led to the crushing (temporarily) of our economy. After winning two wars, killing 75% of Al Qaeda leadership, passing a huge return of money to the people to which it belonged, our country is once again returning to greatness!!! Projected deficits have shrunk from 500 billion dollars, to 270 billion (and still shrinking)! This is due to GROWING THE ECONOMY, AND REDUCING DEBT THROUGH INCREASED TAX REVENUES, FROM INCREASED PROFITS AND INCOME!!! The paper budget surplus (under klintoon, and authored by a Republican controlled Congress) was created by a growing economy, which raised Federal Revenues. This is now being repeated under President Bush's watch! After reading crap like moore, I know that you liberals have limited storage for real data. That is no excuse for not at least trying to understand reality as it is!
"Or how about the outrageously high gas prices? $2.50 a gallon!? Never was that high during the Clinton Admin".
GAS is DROPPING in PRICE like a LEAD BALOON. Adjusted for INFLATION, GAS should be selling for $4.50 A GALLON today.
"How about interest rates, mortgage rates, which are all higher during this horrible administration compared to when Clinton was president"
Put down that crack-pipe, and join the real world. Interest rates are at an ALL TIME LOW, and mortgage rates have been also. Housing starts, and home sales have exceeded anything klintoon ever witnessed.
"Not to mention all the money going into Iraq, which could be going toward homeland security, and public schools (No Child Left Behind Act is a disgrace)".
Iraq is the front in the War on Terror! Every terrorist killed in Iraq, is a terrorist that cannot attack us here in this country. Afghanistan, Iraq, and soon the rest of the ME will be on the road to Democracy, and with these newfound freedoms will come prosperity, and the end to thousands of years of barbarism that has permeated the ME. You are far too short sighted, but reading crap like moore will lead to brain cell death! Federal spending on EDUCATION is 58% higher under Bush, than it was under klintoon! What you do not like is that teachers, and schools must perform, or lose bucks just like in the real world (which you are oblivious to, due to your indoctrination into socalism!
Go back to the DU TROLL! Tell your buds that Pubbies do not just want to win, but we are working towards the absolute DESTRUCTION of your party. Thanks for all the help that you DUmmies have been giving us in our endeavor!!!

Wonderful response, LLS! Troll's head must be spinning.
After a road trip to Florida, I don't fully buy into the notion that gas prices are "dropping like a lead balloon".
However, they are dropping and, other than that one small point, I wish I had said what you said so well!
