Yes, and all the economic problems were caused by first, Bill Clinton, and then the past two years of a Democratic congress. All was golden for all the Republican Congresses and that top notch statesman and economic wizard, President Bush the latter.
Luckily he got us into a truly wonderful war where we can keep the American spirit alive if not American GI's. Bush has been a loyal friend to his friends and they are all wealthy beyond their dreams as we gladly pay them outrageously for gasoline.
Personally, I like having a President who was so sensitive as to become almost catatonic and shit himself in the face of terrorist attacks. Its been wonderful. Yes, the Republican party is the party of choice for thinking Americans (read: assholes)
