Democrats Have Trashed the Economy
I've been totally lazy about blogging lately but I read a great letter to the editor in the Missoulian today.
Daniel Shevlin points out the gorilla in the room that nobody seems to have noticed or is willing to admit.
Is there going to be just one liberal here in Missoula who is ever going to ask why our economy, which was (under Republican leadership in the U.S. House) robust and growing for the past four years, is now tanking after one year of liberal Democrat control in the House? Is there ever going to be an article in any form of local media which asks the question as to why the current House, again under liberal Democrat control, has the lowest approval ratings of any House in American history? How can this be, since of course last year we heard that all the problems humanity faces worldwide were going to be solved with liberals controlling the House and Senate? Yet, since liberals took control of two-thirds of our government one year ago, our economy has been driven into near recession.
Certainly the «netroots» liberals are going to take issue with this observation, using their twisted logic to blame Bush. But the facts are facts. The economy was doing great, under Bush and the Republican congress. This is an undisputed fact.
In one short year, the Democrat controlled congress has eroded the market's confidence to the point we sit at the verge of a full blown recession. With the very real possibility that a fool full blown liberal Democrat president, influenced by the fringe netroots, will be elected is further eroding the confidence of the market.
