In an op-ed on Watching Politics Sidney Gendin cites some horiffic statistics of the Bush-Schwarzenegger “accomplishments”.

In 1999, median family income was $47, 671. It declined every year from 2000 through 2004 but it has soared up to $46,326 in 2005. Those who had absolutely no money in 1999 still have absolutely no money. Poverty has “stabilized at 12%” according to Census data. So much for the richest country on Earth.

This is our “miracle”, this is the growth that the Bush-Schwarzenegger (B.S.) has brought us?  No thanks, I’d like a refund. of my $1300.  Let’s just take it out of GOP campaign coffers. The image to the right is the change in median income by state since George W. Bush and his tax cuts for the rich came to Washington from the Detroit Free-Press via “So-Called Austin Mayor”
