Bush’s tax breaks caused this rift

My dear Mr. Gingrich,

Maybe if the unemployed people who are occupying Wall Street were employed by the 1 percent who were given tax breaks by George W. Bush’s Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003, then maybe they wouldn’t be Occupying Wall Street.

By the way, The Wall Street Journal reported on Jan. 9, 2009, that “The current President Bush, once taking into account how long he’s been in office, shows the worst track record for job creation since the government began keeping records.”

And since Congress extended those tax cuts, where are the new jobs that have been created?
