HEY STUPID - IT'S THE STUPID ECONOMY
although the economy is sinking faster than a lead brick in water, it also has risen to the top issue of concern for voters.

bush's rebate scam is a bandaid, and will fall off soon after it's applied.

McCain has stated he knows nothing about the economy, and jobs will continue to disappear overseas, but we will have wars. To play with an old campaign slogan - McCain's version should be "no chicken in the pot, and two wars in every country"

His handlers are quickly spinning. Pointing out McCain will have "good advisors" - (heard that one before, would have wore the t-shirt if I could afford it... heeheehee)

They also proudly spin that McCain does have a book. One book? yep - greenspan's book. the same man that rubberstamp bush's first taxcut-rebate scam. On the plus side, at least this "book" doesn't come with a free box of crayons.

Clinton and Obama should turn their knives away from each other and point them at McCain.

like my post title says -- HEY STUPID - IT'S THE STUPID ECONOMY

1. As the city burns, Nero gaily fiddles away..
As all candidates join in on the mirth and merryment....

2. *'s rebate is a indeed band aid on a recently severed limb.
Another thing that drives me nutz is when the punditry suggests that people are more concerned about the economy than the war, as if. . .they are unrelated.

The enormous debt, the falling dollar, the tripled and in some cases quadrupled costs of gas and heating oil that have increased the costs of goods and services, are all related to the bogus war.

It's the stupid economy for sure but the economy is tanking largely due the war amongst other things.

McCain wants to "bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran" and stay in Iraq for 100 years.

That will surely bolster the economy. . .of the war profiteers only.

yikes
