I hope Bush keeps quoting the BS, er I mean, BLS unemployment figures everywhere. That way, voters will realize what a joker he is. Btw, how come Dumbya is having only fund-raisers? How about him doing at least one townhall meeting for every 5 fund-raisers?

<<I bet you you also don't think Bush inherited a recession. I bet you belive the stock market bust that began in March of 2000 was his fault, even though he wasn't president. I bet you believe....I could go on........>> So you're a comedian, not up on your facts, and a lousy better. I don't believe any of those things. I do blame Bush for the way he's played the hand he was dealt. Every expansion we've ever had has ended in a recession. Every Bull market has ended in a Bear market. I don't blame the President (any President) for the business cycle. But this fiscal mess where we're running huge deficits during an expansion is unconscionable, not to mention the height of fiscal incompetence. In Bush's first address to congress as President he said, "The growing surplus exists because taxes are too high and government is charging more than it needs. The people of America have been overcharged and on their behalf, I am here to ask for a refund." Well his current budget, not counting the SS surplus money, has an $800 billion deficit. The American people are being undercharged and i wish we had a President with enough political courage to pay the bills. Think of it like a company. They've missed every estimate on jobs, revenue, costs, and income. They're losing more and more money even while the economy expands. The CEO needs to go. Steve Dietrich
