What baloney! We have borrowed 6 dollars for every dollar growth in GDP, and even those growth figures are cooked up using tricks like hedonic adjustments, chaining and other legerdemain. Unemployment numbers are rigged. If they were computed the same way they used to be 20 years ago, we will be at 10+ percent unemployment. We are borrowing money at $2B a day from foreign lenders and you make the stupid statement that they can't afford our exports! What are we exporting anyway? Other than green pieces of paper and our jobs, that is.

If unemployment numbers are really so low, why are Americans so strongly up against illegal immigrants "stealing" our jobs? After all, Dumbya says that those are jobs that we won't do (apparently because we are all rolling in wealth! LOL!).

And why do you think Dumbya's approval numbers would be below 30 percent if jobs were plentiful, and wages were rising? Don't tell me that it is because of Iraq! After all Dumbya has turned Iraq into a veritable valley of peace, so why should that be the cause for his unpopularity?!
