2. Yep, the economy is great.
Everyone is going to get hurt by Bush policies.

3. Bush is right...
Just as attacks on our troops are a sign that we're winning in Eye-rack, and
War protests in London are an indication of freedom,
Record bankruptcies are the sign of a healthy economy.
(Orwell couldn't have done better.)
