McCain: "The Fundamentals of Our Economy Are Strong"

This is what we've got going on in our nation's economy:

  • A debt that has grown $7,700,000,000,000 during the Bush Administration
  • A war in Iraq that is costing $10,000,000,000 a month
  • A health care system, Medicare, that eats up $340,000,000,000 a year
  • A global warming crisis with national security and environmental ramifications which worsen EVERY DAY
  • The failure of 3 of the Big 5 on Wall Street - Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, and Merrill Lynch - in the last 8 months
  • And this is what John McCain has to say about our economy:

    Seriously, John McCain doesn't get it. Nor does Mrs. Palin, but that's another post ... if we vote for this team of liars, we deserve the lack of change they will bring us over the next four years.

    A reader, WM, alerted me that I added 2 zeroes to the cost of Medicare ... (0.00 / 0)
    The correct amount spend per year is approximately $340 billion, not $34 trillion.  

    I regret the error.
