Bush Says Economy Is Going To 'Come On'

President Bush, buoyed by a batch of economic news that wasn't as bad as expected, predicted Friday that consumers are on their way to better days.

"I know it's tough times, and I know you're having to pay more at the fuel pump than you want," Bush said. "But this economy is going to come on. I'm confident it will."

Intellegent designs..d­oes not explain BUSH..JAIL TO THE CHIEF..COM­E ONN.

[CrazyDemocrat]

Jail ??...Queen Pelosi say's we can't even impeach him !!

If you had listened to President Bush on the economy a year ago you'd be sitting on a bunch of devalued real estate, financed with a Countrywide loan.

That would be your "nest egg", and you'd be a "stakeholder" in his house 'o cards economy.

Poor you.

Luckily, sensible people ignored him. The majority. Maybe even less listen now. Like, three.

[ObamaSuperDelegate]

This is off topic - I was just watching the Jefferson Jackson Dinner on Cspan in North Carolina. The Hillary supporters are so ignorant. Hillary went first and after Hillary left, her supporters left. Cspan kept showing the empty seats. Those are the kinds of ignorant things that divide people.

Considering the quality of the posts a certain Crazyone is making, I do believe the yacht has docked.

[ErnestineBass]

"Aye, Aye, little buddy!" LOL

[CrazyDemocrat]

Just the facts mam, just the facts !!

[Gary47]

"The economy is going to come on." What does that even mean? Bushspeak is usually funny yet decipherable. But this one is the other way around.

[lornejl]

Only ditto heads can decipher bush speak, to normal people, he sounds like babbling idiot.

[glesslib]

That's an British phrase, I believe. I have no idea where Bush would have heard it. I don't think he even speaks English. And the British dislike him so much that they are turning the Labor Party out after over 30 years, just for associating with the guy.

[glesslib]

Can someone tell me what's the deal on the accidental bannings? I was one of the unfortunates and have been away, so don't know how this got undone.

[CrazyDemocrat]

Technology !!

[glesslib]

Got that...how­ever, someone else on this thread commented on the problem and I was looking for more details.

[lornejl]

Arianna subbed this place out to Blackwater for awhile.

[BeyondGoodAndEvil]

LOL

[VolvoBirkenstock]

Posting links set it off in many cases.

[glesslib]

Thanks. I was wondering what I had done. When you write, there's no one to answer at the banning spot.

[OrangeMocha]

I was an accidential banning too -- HP said it was a software glitch. I haven't even tried my old account yet.

[rh654]

Bush has got to start pumping some iron - with those toothpick arms he should stick to long sleeve shirts.

[RobtBrock]

Bush has to be the absolute worst oil man in US history. He also likes to be like his dad - drive the American economy into the ditch.

[JoJoKewl]

CrazyDemocrat See Profile I'm a Fan of CrazyDemocrat
A recession is not a bad thing !!

I didn't say it was. I just said we're gonna kick bootie in November in Congress. People vote Dem in a recession.

[CrazyDemocrat]

Yep, a different set of morons, we just can't get decent folks in the House and Senate

[shockmagog]

You are mistaken--we did in 2006 and we will again (exponentially) this year. Hold your horses.

[kay]

God, I hope consumers stop spending.

They're drowning in debt. It's absolutely unprecedented how much debt they're carrying. It's insane.

President Bush is the absolute worst President in my memory at using the "bully pulpit" in a responsible manner.

I honestly can't recall a time in eight years where he called for sacrifice, or restraint, or even common sense.

It's like your neighborhood pay day lender offering unsolicited financial advice. Stay clear of this person. He wants something.

[Ron]

More Bush catch phrases and rhetoric, once a cheerleader always a cheerleader. He'll continue his failed ways, opposite of the truth, and putting everything off so he can blame the next guy and the hell with the truth.

[beekeeper]

GEEZUS THIS GUY IS A THREAT TO OUR NATION. Rid him of office

[HumeSkeptic]

Too late.

This was predicted long time ago:

[shockmagog]

Classic. When Time Magazine actually meant something.­..

[CrazyDemocrat]

Queen Nancy says , NO, NO, NO !!

[shockmagog]

Yes, Nancy Raygun's "just say no." On the contrary, ridding our nation of vermin is just what she had in mind.

[TocinoHumano]

Better yet. rid the office of him.

[dr4Will]

watch this man--dementia is setting in--too many years of drinking before he saw the Light!!

[swamijo]

think again...Bu­sh may have told folks he gave up drinkin' but that don't mean he actually did? We're talking about one of the most sociopathic liars in our nation's history...­here's proof that this guy still drinks and he doesn't hide it (except when he's lyin' to those crazy 'Christian' preachers about how he pretends to love Jeebus!)

IS GEORGE BUSH OFF THE WAGON?!

[BeyondGoodAndEvil]

It's called drunk.

[BlackMagicWoman]

WHAT AN IDIOT!

[Stevelagain]

Then don't vote for him!

[BeyondGoodAndEvil]

Lil' Bushie is mad.

[shockmagog]

You mean, don't have a viable "fourth estate," and have a Supreme Court who selects him, and institutionally rig two general elections, don't you?
