Bush quote hammered away in today's WTE
"I'm more worried about families finding jobs and putting food on the table than I am about, yuou know, economic theory and economic numbers."
The columnist then called up the RNC and asked them, "what would you say if a Democrat running for President said he had no interest in economic theories or numbers?" All the RNC people responded, "sounds like a Democrat," then he revealed who said it, they hung up on him.
Just kind of a funny thing.

1. Doesn't the moran realize that it is government's JOB to understand...
...economic theory and economic numbers, and that is HOW they do something about "families finding jobs and putting food on the table"? You don't just wish these things to happen!

What a moran.

2. Good stuff
The best way to hammer Bush is to use his own words. It's that simple - we don't need to exaggerate or embellish - just quote him directly - and repeat repeat repeat.

6. Nope, local paper
The local paper is the Wyoming Tribune Eagle, the columnist was Joe Barrett, a local... actually I don't know what he does, but a local.

5. Love it!! We should do more of this!
Especially to our repuke acquaintances! Ask 'em what if a Dem running for pres. said they favored....(fill in the blank), and then tell 'em it's Patriot Act or PNAC or voting machines, etc.

That would go a long way toward getting the word out.

:kick:

9. ouch, that's great
Bush's hand eye coordination wasn't up to snuff at the old family food fights I guess, wonder if it was the drugs.

him to the Texass Rump Rangers, Harken, Carlysle(sp.?), Caterair, etc. So don't feel that your job being sent oversees is harmful, think of it as helping another fellow human being. People need to look at the larger, glorious picture.:spank:
