Cruel Summer Update:
How do you spin this?
I just settled into my hotel room and Fox news is reporting that at the current rate of job growth announced today, it will take 10 years to get back to the employment levels we had in 2000. While I don't think that things will be this slow forever, the measely 32,000 jobs created are not good news for Bush. It will be interesting to see how the campaign will try to spin this. For two weeks now the President has been saying "Results Matter." They do, and that's probably why he's running scared.
Of course if you can't win on the economy, attack on moral issues- In fact, perhaps they can find a way to blame the current economic soft patch on gay marriage.
