This comes in three parts - We don't know the source but it's too good to pass up.

 

Part 1:
In just one year.

Remember the election in 2006?

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

1) Consumer confidence plummeting;
2) The cost of regular gasoline soaring 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% of American homes are in foreclosure.

America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!

Remember it's Congress that makes law not the President.
He has to work with what's handed to him.


Part 2:
Taxes...Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics
enlightening and amazing.
www.taxfoundation.org/publications/show/151.html ;
Taxes under Clinton 1999                   Taxes under Bush 2008
Single making 30K - tax $8,400         Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $14,000       Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $23,250       Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K - tax $16,800  Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $21,000  Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $38,750 Married making 125K - tax $31,250

Both democratic candidates will return to the higher tax rates
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.

PART 3:
You think the war in Iraq is costing us too much?
Read this:
Boy, am I confused. I have been hammered with the
propaganda that it is the Iraq war and the war on terror
that is bankrupting us. I now find that to be RIDICULOUS.

Are we THAT stupid?
If this doesn't bother you then just delete the message.
If, on the other hand, it does raise the hair on the back
of your neck, I hope you forward it to every legal resident
in the country including every representative in Washington D.C.
five times a week for as long as it takes to restore some
semblance of intelligence in our policies and enforcement
thereof.
