Out of Touch or Out of His Mind?
Friday, April 18
John McCain talked about the economy on Bloomberg News last night. Here's what he had to say:
"You could make an argument that there's been great progress economically over that period of time (the past seven years)."
Well, you could make that argument, Senator McCain -- but you'd be wrong.
The past seven years have seen a steady erosion of the middle class. Though our nation's GDP has risen, average family incomes are down. Bush's tax cuts have disproportionately benefited the wealthy, while everyone else is left to struggle with rising health care costs, rising gas prices, foreclosures, and outsourced jobs.
The American people certainly aren’t buying John McCain's argument. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll released today shows that 90 percent of the American public gives the economy a negative rating, with a majority saying it's in "poor" shape. Yet McCain insists on standing by the failed record of George Bush.
It should be clear to any rational observer: This economy isn't working for the vast majority of Americans.
John McCain is either completely out of touch or out of his mind. If the American people have a better understanding of the economy than John McCain, then why should they trust his economic plan?

Instead of ripping Michigan’s congressmen like Tim Walberg why don’t you “independent” morons look at the real problem. If you want to rip someone for the sad state of affairs in Michigan than blame the most inept elected official in American History Jenifer Scamholm. She is the reason this state fell apart we had a thriving economy and in her 1st term she destroyed this state. Bush and Walberg are not the problem in Michigan. Of course you would never admit that because while you lie to people and claim to be independent what you are is a liberal front group. The sad part is you are a bunch of worthless cowards who are too ashamed of who you really are to just admit it. So you claim to be neutral when it is a flat out lie. So waste all the air time you want with your worthless adds. But in Michigan we won’t fall for it we know who is to blame for this state and it is your precious liberal leadership.
