If it had, we would not be in the situation we are now in. Wages went down; jobs were lost or out sourced; funds went overseas, etc. It did not work! It is time to try other ideas. The Republicans can offer them or decide to play games. Look at y0ur net worth today and compare it with the previous eight years. Did trickle down work for you? Are you better off or worse off?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558253513796745662.post-18096384974686731712009-02-18T09:43:00.000-05:002009-02-18T09:43:00.000-05:00Thanks, Jim, for the comment.

Since the election, he been showing his true anti-maverick colors, acting just like the right-wing water carrier that he always has been.<BR/><BR/>Nice post on the real John McCain, not the McCain as perpetual presidential candidate.<BR/><BR/>Truth is important in these times, if nothing more than to counter the constant misinformation coming from the right--like the current sound in my right ear, as I'm trying to get through a few more minutes of right-wing idiot, Glenn Beck's program. Occasionally, I try to listen to the enemy, as my contribution to the cause. He's doing his usual routine of spreading fear and hate, channeling 1950s John Birch Society rhetoric.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763876658345223153noreply@blogger.com
