Remember Kerry saying Bush has lost more jobs on his watch...mmm not true .
[/qoute]
At the time it was VERY true.
Enough jobs were created toward the end to basically BREAK EVEN with the job losses so he has a net 0 job increase loss in terms of pure jobs.
That said, over 2 million people became of age to be part of the job pool so he has a net decrease in jobs.
We were attacked by bin Laden NOT Iraq. The billions spent in Iraq were not necessary as GWB's promise to "get bin Laden" disappeared as his agenda from the beginning of his first term in office to attack Iraq came to the forefront.
ROFL.
You try to claim Clinton's actions in office which achieved FAR more than what you're trying to attribute to GWB were per happenstance.
If that's the case then all GWB did was unnecessarily increase the national debt in an attempt to bankrupt the country because all results were also happenstance.
Plus, he lowered the unemployment rate?
It was in the 4% range when he took office, it is over 5% now. Though it is down from the 6% range it was at earlier in his administration.
That largest reason for his minor lowering of the unemployment rate last year was having over 3 million people being disillusioned with failure to find jobs so they no longer tried finding jobs for the previous 12 week period hence amazingly they no longer get counted as being unemployed. They don't have jobs, can't find jobs, and by golly they're no longer unemployed.
What the bleep is "high income ownership"?
Is that where he lowered taxes the most heavily for the rich and for large corporations that didn't create jobs and kept their monetary gains for themselves?
No new attacks. Let's see the odds of attacks happening are random at best and very low anyhow so lets give GWB credit for not having any new attacks. That makes sense. If we're going to do that then we have to give him credit for the 9/11 attack as well.
As for low taxes, all that's done is create an even larger gap between low / middle income earners and the rich and lead to trillions of dollars added to the national debt.
That vast majority of people that got GWB's tax cuts got well under $500 in savings which they promptly respent on a lack of health care or because of no longer having jobs.
The rich saved thousands on the tax cuts which they primarily added to their savings without putting it back into the economy.
The change to dividend taxation at normal tax rates to 5% or 15% helps absolutely no one but the rich. Dividends recived by the lower income earners would already have been at that level or lower and the rich now drop their taxation on those dividends from as much as 30%+ down to as low as 5%. Since it isn't an impact on the actual tax rates of the rich they can get major savings on their tax bills and still be able to say "gee, we still have a higher tax rate than those that make less".
Yep, Clinton had sex in the oval office and lied about it under oath. No one died, nothing changed in the ecomony. Well, nothing but the millions spent on the witch hunt foisted by Ken Starr and the "conservatives".
GWB lies about WMD, a connect between Iraq and 9/11, invades Iraq and gets thousands of people killed, tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of people maimed and spends hundreds of billions of dollars in the process. That's sure a vast improvement.
Then we have Bush's "religious advisor" getting indicted for having sex with at least one of his underage students.
Amongst other issues of that nature involving the "conservatives" that get swept under the rug unless it gets done by a "liberal" at which point it becomes a major crisis for the country.
