Dean Responds to Unemployment Figures
Dean Responds to Unemployment Figures
DES MOINES--Howard Dean commented on the November unemployment figures released this morning, and how, despite the growth, this administration has compiled the worst economic record since the Great Despression:

"Today's job announcement is another link in the chain of President Bush's broken promises. When he proposed his program of tax cuts for the rich, he said they would create 306,000 jobs a month. November's 57,000 job record puts the administration even further behind its promise -- and puts the American worker further behind the eight-ball.

"Worse yet, manufacturing -- the heart of American prosperity -- continued to lose jobs for the 39th consecutive month. In November, another 17,000 American factory workers got the unwelcome news that they lost their jobs -- just in time for Christmas.

"Meanwhile, the Administration and the Republican Congress refuse to take up the extension of unemployment benefits that would help millions of jobless workers in the new year. It's time to take back America and put America back to work."

2. that's excellent
don't let Bush get away with the lowered expectations garbage, remind people of his promises. I'd forgotten that one.

The dems should do that with the war too. They keep telling us things are getting better, the dems should keep pointing out that everything they tell us about Iraq is a lie.
