GOP Party Leaders Tout ‘Bush Prosperity’ (washingtonpost.com)

Republican Party leaders touted the advent of what they called a period of “Bush prosperity” Wednesday as their national gathering to promote President Bush and Vice President Cheney for a second term reconvened with a brief protest and scuffling on the convention floor.

Unbelievably cut off from reality. Their good friends , the top 1%, are the only ones who know this “prosperity”. Like the ancient prophets were apt to say, this is a false prosperity, from which the mighty will fall.
