Congress Is The Change We Need!

George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. During the first six years, the economy was fine except for enduring the worst terrorist attack in U.S. History. The government had to step in and help the airlines and taxpayers gave millions to survivors in the twin towers.

It wasn't until about a year ago that:

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%.
4) the DOW JONES hit a record high--14,000 +
5) Americans were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, and living large!...

But Americans wanted 'CHANGE'!

So, what did they do? In 2006, they voted in a Democratic Congress & yep--we got 'CHANGE' all right.

PAY ATTENTION TO THIS PEOPLE! THIS IS WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST YEAR:

1) Consumer confidence has plummeted;
2) Gasoline is now approximately $4 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS & prices still dropping;
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) As I write this, THE DOW is probing another low (11,100); $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM OUR STOCKS, BONDS, & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!

AND IF THAT ISN'T ENOUGH...

Speaker Of The House, Nancy Pelosi, & Senate Majority leader, Harry Reed (both democrats), will not allow a vote on more oil exploration in the USA.

YEP...IN 2006, AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE!.....AND WE SURE GOT IT!!!...

NOW OBAMA, the DEM'S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT, CLAIMS THAT HE'S GONNA REALLY GIVE US CHANGE!!....

JUST HOW MUCH MORE DEMOCRATIC 'CHANGE' DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND???...


TOPICS:
KEYWORDS:
IMO, the RNC and Conseervatives can forget this race unless they focus on the absolute train wreck that the DEMOCRAT'IC' CONGRESS has been since being elected in 2007.

Pointing out that Congress is responsible for SPENDING all the money and BLOCKING key legislation to make our country safer and more prosperous is crucial. Obama wants to blame Bush, who doesn't write the checks, CONGRESS DOES!!!
