The Democrats now promise, "A New Direction For America"

.......................................

The stock market is at a new all-time high and America's 401K's are
back.
A new direction from there means, what?

Unemployment is at 25 year lows.
A new direction from there means, what?

Oil prices are plummeting.
A new direction from there means, what?

Taxes are at 20 year lows.
A new direction from there means, what?

Federal tax revenues are at all-time highs.
A new direction from there means, what?

The Federal deficit is down almost 50%, just as predicted over last
year.
A new direction from there means, what?

Home valuations are up 200% over the past 3.5 years.
A new direction from there means, what?

Inflation is in check, hovering at 20 year lows.
A new direction from there means, what?

Not a single terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11/01.
A new direction from there means, what?

Osama bin Laden is living under a rock in a dark cave, having not
surfaced in years, if he's alive at all, while 95% of Al Queda's top
dogs are either dead or in custody, cooperating with US Intel.
A new direction from there means, what?

Several major terrorist attacks already thwarted by US and British
Intel, including the recent planned attack involving 10 Jumbo Jets being
exploded in mid-air over major US cities in order to celebrate the
anniversary of the 9/11/01 attacks.
A new direction from there means, what?

Just as President Bush foretold us on a number of occasions, Iraq was
to be made "ground zero" for the war on terrorism -- and just as
President Bush said they would, terrorist cells from all over the
region are arriving from the shadows of their hiding places and
flooding into Iraq in order to get blown away by US Marines
rather than boarding planes and heading to the United States to wage war.
A new direction from there means, what?

Now, let me see, do I have this right? I can expect:

The economy to go South
Illegal's to go North
Taxes to go Up
Employment to go Down
Terrorism to come In
Tax breaks to go Out
Social Security to go away
Health Care to go the same way gas prices have gone

But what the heck!

I can gain comfort by knowing that Nancy P, Hillary C, John K, Edward
K, Howard D, Harry R and Obama have worked hard to create a
comprehensive National Security Plan, Health Care Plan, Immigration
Reform Plan, Gay Rights Plan, Same Sex Marriage Plan, Abortion On
Demand Plan, Tolerance of Everyone and Everything Plan, How to Return
all Troops to the U.S. in The Next Six Months Plan, A Get Tough Plan,
adapted from the French Plan by the same name, and a How Everyone Can
Become as Wealthy as We Are Plan. I forgot the No More Katrina Storm
Plan.

It would be ever so much more amusing if all those conditions could possibly be true at once.

Also, of course, if oil prices weren't "plummeting" from an all-time high.

Tax breaks to go Out


Actually there are very few tax breaks on the chopping block right now, most if not all are expected to be renewed through 2009/2010.


< Edit >

bleh, couldn't find much on the senate passing them but the house ok'd the state sales tax as well as the teacher credit and tuition credit.

They are deductible for the current year so they passed the senate, just little publication about them.

So in other words, no tax credits are not disappearing.

Some old, crazy man once told us to not meddle in foreign affairs, but I guess he was wrong.

This made me laugh a lot. And anyone who needs an explanation of why this, and the rest of the OP, is quite funny, is someone who has spent too much time sitting moon-eyed at Rush Limbaugh's elbow, listening raptly as he spins his yarns of days of yore, in a place called LEAVE IT TO BEAVERLAND, which never really existed in the first place.

EDIT: Mmmm. Beaverland.

Osama requires dialysis, so you can bet hes not just sitting under a rock somewhere.

Besides, if the rock is big enough to hide both himself and his dialysis, it's probably crushing him to death.

My version of a new direction?

US decides to stop being a wuss and just take over the whole bloody world already. The US is already the one everyone comes crying to whenever some major catastrophe happens.

Nobody ever says... "oh so... something's happening in Somalia... let's call in... China!"

The world already thinks we're an evil empire: I say we show them what it really means to be an empire :-)
