    “None of these tax cuts is affordable. None of them creates jobs, and they are not fair. All of them do damage to our long-term economic growth and contribute to the national deficit.”
    -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA); May 09, 2003

    "The President has the worst jobs record since the Great Depression" -- Clueless House Minority Leader SanFranNan (D-CA), Nov. 3, 2006

Negative Reporting
-      Bad news is always bigger news than good news. But a study by the Business and Media Institute says when it comes to the economy, broadcast network news stories are overwhelmingly and intentionally negative.

     The year-long study of evening news programs revealed more than twice as many negative economic stories as positive — and the negative stories were in full -length reports — while the positive were in shorter forms. The study says the "CBS Evening News" went negative on the economy in 80 percent of its reports — the highest percentage among the three networks. [see http://www.businessandmedia.org ]
