Good thing we have people like Jim around to remind us about lipstick and pigs. That's clearly more relevant to who would better serve the American people than unimaginably stupid quotes like "the fundamentals of our economy are strong."
Lori, the richest of the rich have gotten a complete free ride under Bush, and enough's enough. Making wealthy people wealthier is the only thing the Bush administration has consistently stood for, and look at where we are economically. The average salary in America has gone down over $2,000. Guess not enough is "trickling down," eh? Cry me a river about billionaires having to pay an extra couple percent more in taxes, we need an administration that has the average American's interests in mind foremost.

from fact check:
Obama said "average family income" went down $2,000 under Bush, which isn't correct. An aide said he was really talking only about "working" families and not retired couples. And – math teachers, please note – he meant median (or midpoint) and not really the mean or average. Median family income actually has inched up slightly under Bush
