    Don't believe a word of this liberal Democrat propaganda.

    Listen to George Bush. Above all, listen to Phil Gram, expert economic advisor to John McLain who has publicly stated that America Is a 'Nation of Whiners' and only in a 'Mental Recession'

    A devalued dollar? Inflation? War in Iraq? 10 trillion national debt? Energy prices rocketing upward? Unemployment? Bank failures? No medical care? Crumbling infrastructure? Tsk, tsk, tsk - It's all in your mind !!!

    Listen to Rush. Listen to FOX news. Get your facts from talk radio.

    Wake up you whining bastards! Four more years!

      The Iranian President has already said that the US$ is a worthless piece of paper.

      Iran only conducts its oil business in EURO.

      Good Luck to Americans venturing to China for the Olympics. They are not going to accept US$. It will be either EURO or Japanese YEN.

      Chinese PM knows that Bush already owes him $trillions borrowed to fight in Iraq and bail out POOR Americans.

        Bush is draining the treasury. He's draining our wallets with his rich oil buddies, wall street, and world bankers.

        Wake up people. Quit listening to Rush Fatbuagh and Anne (skeletal) Coochie Coultier.

                Here are two interesting quotes from yesterday:

                Bush: "The Economy Is Growing. Productivity Is High. Trade's Up. People Are Working"...

                Bernanke: Economy Facing "Numerous Difficulties"... Will Grow "Appreciably Below Its Trend Rate"...

                Who would you nominate for a nobel prize in Economics?

                  I think it's only the beginning.

                  Next year it'll be worse.

                      Correction: Dollar going down- Bush leaving town rich, made Dick Cheney rich, made defense contractors rich, made oil companies rich, made world bank rich.

                      He drained the treasury so that our country is now at the whims of the rich families and corporations. Made grandpappy proud.

                      Republcan economics:

                      --Borrow from the children,

                      --Print new money,

                      --Give tax breaks to the ultra-rich

                      --Spend Spend Spend

                      And Republicans think that the Democrat approach of tax and spend is bad?

                        McCain will be good to have around for the home foreclosures, he was one of the Keating 5 indicted during the S&L failures in the late 80s.

                        McCain knows how to stay out of jail. His wife destroys receipts accidentally.
