They're all pretty pathetic and useless.

Ken sent this to me in an email:

A little over one year ago:



1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.



Since voting in a Democratic Congress late in 2006 we're seen:



1) Consumer confidence plummeted;
2) the cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses);
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.



America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!



CHANGE IS NOT ALWAYS GOOD! IT DEPENDS ON WHAT KIND OF “CHANGE” IT IS.

THE “CHANGE” NEEDS TO BE DEFINED! TO BLINDLY VOTE FOR “CHANGE” MAKES NO SENSE.
