Bush presidency made us better off

Did you know that Americans under the "failed" Bush economic policies are better off now than when big Bill Clinton was president?

Even though U.S. income fell in 2001 when George Bush became president (and obviously, according to Democrats, was at fault). Oh, by the way, incomes began to decline in 2000 under President Clinton's watch.

According to the IRS, incomes began growing in 2003 and have trended up every year since. Another "failed" Bush policy, because we had tax cuts not income redistribution to shrink our income.

I guess I will vote for the old man who wants to increase my income, keep taxes low, and follow with four more years of the same - that is, follow a man who did an outstanding job of directing the economy through really tough circumstances and got zero credit for it.
