A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2-1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Since voting in a Democratic
Congress in 2006 we've seen:

1) Consumer confidence plummet;

2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to
over $3 a gallon

3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase)

4) American households have seen
$2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate
(stock and mutual fund losses)

5) Americans have seen their home equity
drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;

6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!

Be careful what you vote for in November,
you might get it again!
Can you afford it?
