George Bush's latest campaign ad asks the question we’ve all been wondering on: just how does John Kerry feel about great economy we’ve got going? Gosh durnit, seems as if that Kerry is running around "talking about the Great Depression" and if “one thing’s for sure,” it’s that “pessimism never created a job." (Never? What about, like, firefighters? – Ed.) If you can’t imagine that the Democratic nominee would equate our current tough times to those truly disastrous ones, that’s only because you’re of course right. What Kerry has said is that Bush is the first president to lose jobs “since Herbert Hoover in the Great Depression," which really is along the lines of, um, actual fact. So, as it turns out, we’ve learned this week that in addition to truth being liberal, history is a negative nelly.
