Remember the election in 2006? Thought you might like to read the following:
2005
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.
Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen:
1) Consumer confidence plummet
2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.70 a gallon
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase)
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses)
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!
The most significant accomplishment by the Democrat controlled Congress in 2007:
THEY VOTED TO INCREASE THEIR PAY
Remember it's Congress that makes law not the President. He has to work with what's handed to him.

Good point about the "change" we've gotten from the Democrats. It proves the adage "be careful what you wish for, you just might get it."
