We are not better off now.


Are you better off now than you were eight years ago?

When you look around today you find that civil rights are being trampled, our Constitution is being ignored, the press is being silenced, and the "I'm a uniter not a divider President" is busy using laser guided diplomacy. The economy has stagnated and the war drums beat ceaselessly. Now more than ever, it's important to remember that you have the freedom and the power to make a difference.

The above is currently on the website of the 8th District Democrats and Independents. It was meant as an attack on President George W. Bush, someone forgot to tell them he is no longer President. But their question is still valid, are we better off now?


The economy keeps getting worse, BILLIONS tax dollars cannot be tracked, we have a TRILLION dollar budget deficit, and taxes keep going up. Our troops are still fighting overseas, but it seems Congress and the President are too busy to notice. The administrations first attempts at diplomacy by giving low priced gifts and defective toys to foreign diplomats have not helped. Iran has ignored the Presidents appeal for diplomacy. The only thing the Democratic Administration is doing well at is attacking the Republican Party.


My answer to their outdated question is NO we are not better of now.
