Yeah, Right, Whatever

The Democrat controlled Congress has been blaming President Bush for all the problems our economy seems to be experiencing right now. Well, Neal had an interesting video in his "required reading" list today (no, we won't point that out to Neal... it'll just confuse him).

In case you don't want to watch the whole video (it's 5 minutes long), here are the highlights.

Since the Democrats took control of Congress, the following has happened:

• Oil prices have almost doubled.
  
• Job growth has been cut in half.
• The grocery bill of the average American family has gone up $70 dollars a month.
• House prices have dropped 8%.
• Consumer price inflation was 4%, the highest since the early 90's.

That's just a few of the tidbits. Then Representative Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) goes on to discuss certain earmarks that the Dems have on the list (including building an ark and a Charlie Rangel Center). Granted, the GOP isn't all lily white when it comes to earmarks, but at least many of them are trying.

This video is quite informative. Too bad most Americans won't see it. Or won't care if they do.
