"I laid off my son, today" he says. Doesn't have enough work to pay
him.

So, how are all you Democrats enjoying life, these days? Was this the
change you were hoping for? Anyone out there going to vote for more
of this change? I hope not.


We're smart enough to know that many years of repubs trashing the
American economy can't be undone in 2 years. At least it isn't going
bad anywhere near like it was when Bush left office.


Good point. During the first six years of the Bush administration
unemployment averaged 5%, the stock market topped 14,000, there were 24
consecutive months of economic growth. All this in spite of two wars,
Katrina, and 9/11.

Then the Democrats took control of Congress...
