A NEW DIRECTION FOR AMERICA (indeed)...

This just arrived in our e-mail box and we felt it deserved a post....

AMERICA ASKED FOR A CHANGE:

A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;

2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;

3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we've seen:

1) Consumer confidence plummet;

2) the cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon;

3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);

4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses);

5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;

6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!

Thank you, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid!

The most significant accomplishment by the Democratic controlled Congress in 2007:

THEY VOTED TO INCREASE THEIR PAY !!!!
