Evidently only morons believe it's a 'jobless recovery'. Finally.

Speaking as a self employed person I'm seeing a lot more self employed people than there used to be.

"Are these statistics sound? Mr. Kerry does not ask that question, but some economists are asking it. One, Brian Wesbury, a man distinguished for his reading of economic trends and business achievement, has looked carefully at the economy and found job growth where others have failed to look."

Just for the record - Brian Wesbury has been wrong more often than he's been right over the last 4 years. I wouldn't use him as an example of an economist to rely on for sound economic analysis and projections. I quit using his investment firm because of his reliably wrong analyses.

Kerry the Frog as Robespierre!

That is an absolutely priceless image. A cartoon ad showing Kerry as Robespierre leading all of the republican leaders to the guillotine while Chirac, Schroeder, Kim, Saddam and Cuffy Annan cheer would be priceless.

I understand what he's saying, but two things come to mind that makes me think no one's really going to listen to this explanation.

For one, it can't be explained in a sound bite. Secondly, it's just nebulous enough to sound like a 'smoke and mirrors' explanation of why job losses aren't really job losses. At least that's the way Bush haters will see it.
