GOP Record of Achievement.

Yup, you read that right. Achievement. Do you think the current status of the economy just "happened" on it's own? David Drier writes in the latest Christian Science Monitor about the record with the GOP in power.

In an election season as rancorous as this one, it can be difficult, if not impossible, to discern the truth. Attack ads and dramatic prognostications tend to obscure reality.

Here are some hard facts that have received little attention: In the past year alone, job creation is up, the unemployment rate is down, the stock market is up - way up, gas prices are down and continuing to drop, real average weekly income is up, and the federal deficit is down dramatically. This is all very good news for you, your family, and your future.

Did all of this good news happen by accident? Of course not. It's the result of growth- oriented economic policies put in place by the Republican Congress and President Bush. In 2001 and 2003, with minimal support from Democrats, we approved major tax relief for families, investors, and small-business owners. That tax relief has paid off. Since August 2003, they have helped create 6.6 million jobs and fueled a 31 percent increase in the value of the blue-chip stock market. They have also driven down the federal deficit, thanks to increased revenues to the federal treasury, which were 14.5 percent higher in 2005 from the year before and 11.8 percent higher in 2006.

Very good news, indeed. Let's help the Democrats snatch a defeat from the jaws of victory in November. They have earned it.

Find the Republican in your area and vote for them. As they say in New Orleans....."Laissez les bons temps rouler"!
