What kind of security is that?
Now tell me how Bush is responsible for millions of americans being stupid enough to get on an adjustable rate mortgage, or the real estate market being crappy, or high gas prices? Gas prices rising have caused almost all americans to cut back on spending. Thus causing most of the items on your list. The only big business I know of reporting record profits are the oil companys. And that is OUR own fault. We bought oversized SUV's and have wasted as much energy as we could for a long time. It has finally caught up to us. And it is up to us to change our ways. I HATE how our country spends 21 billion dollars on gas every year. Money that goes out of our country and into the hands of people that want to kill us.

As far as the security... you dont think that our presence in Iraq has had anything to do with the fact that there have been NO major terrorist attacks since 9/11?
