Quit lying about the Bush economy, you nincompoop. Bush's economy is much-much worse than advertised and everyone but a few Bushie brainwashed nitwits know it. That's why the economy is the #1 issue now, even more than the debacle in Iraq.

Bush's real unemployment numbers are 15+%. The study in the LA Times revealed that Bush's numbers are misleading. They do not include those given up looking for work, those part-time or under employed, those forced to live off home equity or inheritances, and those with temporary employment which is ending soon. The downfall of the housing market is a huge un and under employment producer. The debacle in Iraq is a huge temporary employment giver but cannot be seen as a positive, especially when tens of billions are being ripped off and not taxed. Halliburton for instance is famous for stealing from us and evading taxes. Also remember Elaine Chao was caught lying about employment numbers when she admitted she'd classified McDonalds jobs as "manufacturing jobs". That is typical of the many tricks the Bushies are using to push the bad economic news until after the 2008 election. But the markets are not fooled, and the $4 gasoline cannot be ignored. Meanwhile Clinton gave us a near perfect economy with real full employment. Even 75% of black teenagers found work. And Clinton left us with huge surpluses. Bush trillions in new debt.
