Re:
oh, i dont wear blinders, or restrict my criticism.
i agree, that we definitely need to cut spending, and Bush has not done this well at all! (however, you have to compare the debt to the GNP, and express it as a ratio. in this way, it is not nearly as bad as some make it out to be. yet, i would prefer it to be MUCH lower).
(of course, the Dems idea of cutting spending is to RAISE taxes. i am honestly tired of paying nearly half of my income to the government.)
i simply tend to see more positive than negative.
tax cuts: geeee, ikendu...look at the wonderful growth we are having! looks like those tax cuts are working.

by the way, U of M has an excellent record with their forecasts.
will the growth continue? stay tuned...
now, go and have a nice day!

Ps edited to add: i dont think it would be a good idea for me to start a "Happy" or "Positive" thread. though i would try not to slant it politically, i fear it will only turn into a trainwreck.
for example: if i point out our remarkable economic growth (even without claiming any particular reason for the growth), someone (perhaps Nancy Pelosi?) will start ranting "but what about the jobs???!?!?"
{insert trainwreck here}
of course, someone will assert that i am only seeing one side, when i am honestly pointing out reasons to be happy.
how could anyone be unhappy that our economy appears to be rebounding? that means more flashlights!!!
i dont want to make too much work for our moderators.
take care,
Bob
