Turns out that France -- you know, that *socialist* country in Europe with national healthcare, a 35-hour work week and month-long vacations -- has been showing more economic growth than George Bush's U.S.A.

I guess this is what you can expect from 8 years of "compassionative conservative" rule, "small government" and "conservative" economic policies. Say, weren't people saying in late September 2001 that a war in the Middle East was exactly the result Osama was after? Weren't people saying in early 2003 that invading Iraq would create more terrorists & hatred of America than it would eliminate? Weren't still more people saying that diverting attention & money toward Iraq & away from pursuing bin Laden & co was a bad idea? Haven't others, observing among other things the housing bubble & sub-prime scam for a couple of years, been predicting exactly what's happening now? Weren't people saying as early as 2004 that Team Bush's economic idiocy, golden showers for CEOs, hatred of regulation and constant borrowing to pay for Iraq would break the dollar? Can we say "I told you so" yet? Mission Accomplished indeed. You're dead right grumpypilgrim, OBL must be ROFL. Heckuva job, Bushie!
