He has always looked down on the "little folk". mrtravel responds: And Bush's service record????? Nice attempt at diversion. What's that got to do with Kerry? Second, his explanation was that he was making fun of Bush's educational experience (implying that Bush didn't do well at university). That doesn't make any sense because Bush and Kerry both went to the same University at approximately the same time and Bush got better grades than Kerry. What makes you think he was referring to Bush's university education? I don't think American political discourse has quite dropped to the level where politicians are so petty as to attack their opponents' academic records in primary or secondary school, do you?

That's pretty weak. Insulting your opponent does not a compelling rebuttal make, because no facts or substantive argument is offered. Just concede the point, Stephen, and get on with your day. Bush's record demonstrates a remarkably consistent trail of failure in everything he has every touched. You must be so proud to have a leader that has achieved this based solely on the old money that's backing him. Incompetence has never paid so well! -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |

OK, I get it, you're a true Republican - you really *don't* have anything better to fall back on than the tired old "Blame Clinton" mantra. Nice attempt at diversion. Did Bush inherit an economy in recesssion from the Clinton administration, or not? Yes or no? Oh my. You really *don't* have any better comeback than that. Life must be very hard for you. -- Stephen You know? Recapture your godhood and unleash Armageddon, and all of a sudden everyone wants to be a part of the inner circle. |

Stephen Farrow writes: [to Sancho Panza] Ahhh yes, some disaster that record stock market. Quiz for you. What happens when you increase spending and cut taxes? Nice attempt at diversion. What's that got to do with the record stock market? Are you referring to the Dow that took 6 1/2 years to go the 9 percent from 11000 to 12000? How much did inflation increase in that 6 1/2 year period? A lot more that 9 percent, right? Or did you mean the Nasdaq, which is substantially below its record. |

We had record high Dow numbers under Clinton... and NASDAQ..... It is only 9 percent from 11000 to 12000. The previous poster asserted that the Bush administration mismanaged the economy. The rise in Dow numbers on Bush's watch is proof that the economy _grew_ while Bush was in office. How _much_ it grew is immaterial. BS.. If inflation pushes up prices 30-40 percent and the stock market value increases 9 percent, isn't that a relative LOSS? How well do you think your retirement is going to go if your investments are losing 2 to 3 percent (or more) per year of value, when measured against inflation? |

You're cherry-picking. There's a lot more to "the economy" than the worth of the dollar relative to other currencies. Which cherries do you decide to pick? -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |
