My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

Something to Think About 

which you would be seeing in EVERY GOP ad this year, if the party could get its collective head out of its collective orifice.

From Chuck Muth

When Democrats took office on January 4, 2007, the average cost of a gallon of gas was $2.30. As of July 1 of this year it was $4.05.
When the Democrats took over, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was 12,481. As of July 1, it was down to 11,232.

When the Democrats took over, the cost of a loaf of bread was $1.15 and a gallon of milk $3.07. Today, the cost of a loaf of bread is $1.37 and a gallon of milk $3.76.

When Democrats took over, the inflation rate was 2.1 percent. Today it’s 4.2 percent.

When Democrats took over, the unemployment rate was 4.6 percent. Today it’s 5.5 percent...and growing.

Just imagine where we’d be two years after Obama becomes president.

Just the sort of thing I'm hoping we see plastered all over the airwaves over the next few months. Especially when you consider that Congress has about the same approval rating right now as Astrology.
