Putting blame where it lies and not where the media would like you to think it lies.
Putting
blame where it lies and not where the media would
like you to
think
it lies. Quote of the day from Zig Ziegler, "the
media has
accurately
predicted 36 of the last 2
recessions".
In
just one year. Remember the election in 2006?
Thought you might
like to
read the following:
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 in 2006 we have
seen:
1)
Consumer confidence plummet;
2)
The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 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% o f American homes are in
foreclosure.
America
voted for change in 2006, and we got
it!
Re
member, it's Congress that makes law not the
President.
He
has to work with what's handed to
him.

It
is amazing how many people that fall into the
categories above
think
Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the
greatest
President
ever. If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both
say they
will
repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the
people that
fall
into the categories above can't wait for it to
happen. This is
like
the movie, The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam
somebody out of
some
money and they don't even know what
happened.

You think
the war in Iraq is costing us too much? Read
