The New Democrat Direction

by Dale Coparanis

The following is from an email I received that I edited.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

With the Democrats in charge of the congress for the first time in a decade, they are promising a new direction. I wonder, just what does that mean?

- The stock market is setting all-time highs and America's 401K's are making money for the average Joe Sixpack.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Unemployment is at 25 year lows.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Taxes are at 20 year lows and proving to be the catalyst to the growth of
the economy.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Federal tax revenues are at all-time highs.

A new direction from there means...what?

- The Federal deficit is down almost 50%, just as predicted over last year.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Home valuations are up 200% over the past 3.5 years.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Inflation is in check, hovering at 20 year lows.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Not a single terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11/01.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Osama bin Laden is living under a rock in a dark cave, having not surfaced in years, if he's alive at all, while 95% of Al Qaeda's top dogs are either dead or in custody, cooperating with US Intel.

A new direction from there means...what?

- Several major terrorist attacks have already been thwarted by US and British intel, including the recent planned attack involving 10 Jumbo Jets being exploded in mid-air over major US cities in order to celebrate the anniversary of the 9/11/01 attacks.

A new direction from there means...what?

- President Bush told us on a number of occasions that Iraq was to be made "ground zero" for the war on terrorism. President Bush also said terrorist cells from all over the region would crawl out from the shadows of their hiding places and flood into Iraq. Would you rather fight them there or on the streets of New York City or in your backyard?

A new direction from there means...what?...

Now let me see, do I have this new direction right? With the Democrats back in power, I can expect:

a.. The economy to go South

b.. Inflation to go North

c.. Taxes to go Up

d.. Employment to go Down

e.. Terrorism to soon come to our shores again

f.. Al Qaeda to gain strength

Now I know why I feel good after the elections. I am going to be able to sleep soooooo much better at night knowing these dedicated Democrat politicians are thinking only of me and my welfare.
