From what the Lefty Surrender Monkey’s have been saying, the "Bush economy" sucks. If taken at face value, the SM’s have been saying that the Great Depression II is right around the corner. However, as usual, they are full of night soil
The economy grew at a lively 4.3 percent pace in the third quarter, the best showing in more than a year. The performance offered fresh testimony that the country’s overall economic health managed to improve despite the destructive force of Gulf Coast hurricanes.
Despite high gas prices, despite the hurricanes, despite all the doomsayers, the economy did well. And, if you look at the graphic in the article, the GDP has been above 3 since the first quarter 2003. Which is well above Europes GDP during the same period.
Unfortunately, Cindy’s book will not help with the 4th quarter numbers. Probably Bush’s fault.
