TO ALL MY FRIENDS..
George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years.

The first six the economy was fine.

A little over two years 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%.
4) the DOW JONES hit a record high--14,000 +
5) American's were buying new cars,taking cruises,vacations overseas, living large!...

But American's wanted 'CHANGE'! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yes--we got 'CHANGE' all right. In the PAST YEAR:

1) Consumer confidence has plummeted;
2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon & climbing!;
3) Unemployment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase);
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices still dropping;
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~
$2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!

YES, IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE...AND WE SURE GOT IT! ....



REMEMBER THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES, ONLY CONGRESS.



AND WHAT HAS CONGRESS DONE IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.



NOW THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT CLAIMS HE IS GOING TO REALLY GIVE US CHANGE ALONG WITH A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS!!!!



JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND?

What makes it bad is the democrats are still opposed to drilling here.And their "chosen one"cantidate thinks that tire inflation will help lower gas prices more than drilling.Give me a break.Yet all conservatives must remember is "its all Bushes fault.

Do you just make this stuff up, or do you have voices in your head telling you this.
That statement you made has one big false statement and one true:
What is false is that Democrats don't want to drill domestically. Obama has stated several times that the oil companies should begin drilling or face losing their leases.
Obama DID in fact state that if everybody in the country would properly inflate their tires, we could save more oil than we could obtain in some number of years by drilling. That statement is true according to people in Bush's own circle of buddies that keep up with that sort of thing.
You need to go back on your meds. The voices you hear telling you this stuff are wrong.

I would but I think tou stole my script.What they say and how they have voted qre 2 different things.

quote:

Are you trying to imply that it is the duty of Democrats to drill. Hell, I thought that was what Exxon, Shell, etc were supposed to do. Are you advocating that we nationalize the oil drilling in the country.
Tell the friends that are talking to you that Democrats, nor Republicans, nor Independents in congress drill. Just ain't their job.
After you tell them then go take your meds.

Gasoline was $0.98 / gallon

We were in the longest expansion of our economy ever. We had what we have always said we were all about : peace and prosperity.

I know, you Republicans will give the credit to Reagan, but in truth, don't you really wish we had now a country and an economy like we had then ?
