With the Republicans in control of the House and Senate and Presidency, it no wonder that our country's resources have been squandered to the highest bidder.

While George Bush Junior and his oil companies are rolling in money from skyrocketing gasoline sale profits, the average working American is barely scraping through pay check by pay check.

When George Bush claims that the economy is performing admirably, he means that it is the season for profiteering by the very rich. In reality, the economy is showing that the very rich is, in deed, becoming very rich, while the middle class and poor are being dragged downward.

A large split is being formed between the haves and the have nots in America that may never again be breached.

If the answer to your first question is yes, then obviously the answer to the second must also be yes. It is time to remove corrupt Republicans with agendas of personal gains out of office. This November vote Independent, vote Democrat, vote the Republicans out of office!
