"They are content to let more and more money distort the American agenda and diminish the quality of our own democracy. With George Bush in the White House, we have seen a "get mine and get out" ethic that glorifies a creed of greed. Enron executives bilk the retirement savings of ordinary investors, and for months the Administration resists reform. Polluters are given a free pass. Powerful corporations enjoy sweetheart deals at the expense of everyday Americans. Lobbyists come in from the cold to write laws favoring the companies that pay their lavish bills. Insiders ride a revolving door between the White House and major industries. Failed CEOs get golden parachutes while their employees get pink slips. And, for the first time in this nation's history, the most privileged among us get enormous tax breaks during a time of war." "Today we have learned that the nation's unemployment rate jumped to 6.1 percent in May, the highest level in nine years. This is further evidence that the Bush economic policies have been destructive to average American families. "Over 2 million jobs have been lost since President Bush took office. I say that there's only one person in America right now who deserves to be unemployed: George W. Bush." Hm, this might be more interesting than I thought.
