Look at this graph.
If someone was intellectually honest they would first have to notice how bad people had it the last three years of the Clinton presidency.
However, the liberal media portrays the Clinton years as the best in the history of the world...and the great Bush economy as the worst economy since the great depression (maybe even WORSE!!!!)
So we will see once again that the media will not report on the good news, and liberals will have to come up with some new stupid term to minimize the latest good news about the economy...
You know damn well that if a Dem was in the White House the media would make sure EVERYONE thought the economy was great.

Learn to read a chart, Game. Only in 2000 could you possibly say that "people had it bad". This graph shows the positive growth in wages for 1997, 1998, and 1999. In 2000, real growth in wages was negative. One "bad year" for Clinton.
On the other hand, the graph shows three, count 'em, three years in a row of negative growth in wages under Bush.
2006 looks good for Bush. Would be good to see the trend.
I'm also suspicious that this graph has selected 1997 as the starting point to make 2006 look better. I wonder what 1992 to 1997 looked like. Don't you?
growth went down for the last few years of clintons years in office...you know the media would have been all over that if a republican were in office
Why haven't they been "all over that" with Bush's economy showing negative real wage growth for the last three years?
At least Clinton's growth was positive except for 2000.
which terrorist attack on US soil did Clinton have to deal with?
Which policy did he put in place to strengthen the economy?
Bush tax cuts worked, they take time when you inherit the clinton recession and terror attacks...and the media constantly tries to have us believe the economy is crap
Well, it is difficult to blame Clinton for the business cycle, and I'm not going to do it.
In addition, I have to give the Federal Reserve and the Republican Congress a lot of credit for making the last recession one of the most wimpy in the American historical record. The wage growth is on par with the previous recessions of 1981 and 1991, but what is remarkable is the historically low unemployment seen throughout the few recessionary years.
