Elvis is still alive and went back home to Mars!

PART 1: Remember the election in 2006? 
Thought you might like to read the following…… A little over one year ago: 
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high; 
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon; 
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%. 
 
Since voting in a Democratically controlled Congress in 2006 we have seen: 
1) Consumer confidence plummet;
2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 a gallon; 
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase); 
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses); 
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars; 
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure. 
 
America voted for "change" in 2006, and we got it! 
 
Remember, it's Congress that makes the law…not the President. He has to work with what's handed him.    PART 2: Taxes.  Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics enlightening and amazing.  www.taxfoundation.org/publica
tions/show/151.html Taxes under Clinton 1999                   Ta
xes under Bush 2008 
Single making 30K - tax $8,400            Single making 30K - tax $4,500 
Single making 50K - tax $14,000          Single making 50K - tax $12,500 
Single making 75K - tax $23,250          Single making 75K - tax $18,750 
Married making 60K - tax $16,800       Married making 60K- tax $9,000 
Married making 75K - tax $21,000       Married making 75K - tax $18,750 
Married making 125K - tax $38,750     Married making 125K - tax $31,250 Both democrat candidates will return to the higher tax rates. It is amazing how many people who fall into the categories above think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest President ever. If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both say they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the people who fall into the categories above can't wait for it to happen. This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what happened. PART 3: You think the war in Iraq is costing us too much?  Read this………
