One Guy's Opinion on the Political Scene By: Jim Herndon
Here’s a Shock
Shock of shocks, hold on to your socks, a New York Times writer, who has probably endangered his job in doing so, has written that “Mr. Bush (Liberal New York Times writers cannot rise above their pettiness to call George Bush ‘President’) has presided over an economy that other Presidents would envy, yet, much to his advisors’ consternation, he has had trouble getting credit for it.”
A pretty amazing admission since the leftist NYT has been propagandizing their readers about the Economy with distortions and downright lies ever since Bush took office - reference recent diatribe by badmouth Bob Herbert. Their transparent tactics have always been to discredit the President and get Liberals back in the White House. We have had 52 months of economic growth so propagandists like Herbert have had their work cut out for them. The outstanding economic performance under Bush has been all the more remarkable since the president faced an unusual number of unexpected problems such as an inherited recession, terrorists attacks, the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, mortgage loan problems, and record high oil prices. We have had low unemployment and low non-oil inflation and, contrary to the DemPols and their media friends’ attempt to characterize it that way, the American economy is not in recession.
