Rethug presidential nominee-to-be John McSame is claiming that there's been "great progress economically" under the Bush Assministration. He also plans to extend Bushit's tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans if elected. Think Progress notes that McSame's net worth has risen by $18 million since 1999, so maybe he's confusing his own good fortune with the significant number of Americans who have lost their jobs, their homes, their pensions, and their health care. Those hanging on to the middle class by their fingers, working two or more jobs just to stay even, have seen their real incomes fall under Dumbya's mismanaged economy. Funny how we haven't heard much from the mainstream media about this gaffe.
