Republicans Manage Money!


The United States of America only managed to lose 20,000 jobs in April! Of course this gives W more reason to deny he's led us into recession.
There were clear signs of weakness in the report. The average work week slipped to 33.7 hours from 33.8, a sign that some workers had difficulty finding full-time work.

And for those working part time, the work is harder to come by. As a reminder that we live in a global community, I think W and whoever becomes the next president should consider our economy's impact on other nations.
When [Eduardo Gutierrez] visits his home in Mexico, he doesn't reveal everything about just how dire the situation is.

"Every time I go down there, a lot of people ask, 'How is my son doing?' " Gutierrez said. "I don't want to say they're out of a job or anything like that."

He added, "I say they're doing all right. But that is just a lie. They are doing bad right now. A lot of people are doing bad."

Regardless of your politics, this is about humanity and meeting your basic needs. When did our country start failing at that?
Instead of buckling down on the money problems, Georgie's asked Congress for $70 billion more for his War on Terrorism.
