Political Quotes

“even though I come from Ohio, I picked up the Los Angeles Times today and just could not believe the headline. It said, ``President Bush Supports Shift of Jobs Overseas.'' ``The loss of work to other countries,'' this is the sub-headline, ``while painful in the short-term, will enrich the economy eventually, the President's report to Congress says.'' I thought, that cannot be it. It is some overzealous headline writer that really did not understand this. Well, then I started looking at some other papers. I saw the Seattle Times writes, ``Bush report: Sending Jobs Overseas Helps U.S.'' Then I looked at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, just down the road a couple hours from where I live in Lorain, Ohio. The headline was, ``Bush Economic Report Praises Outsourcing Jobs.'' Then the Orlando Sentinel in the home State of the President's brother, Governor Bush, the headline was, ``Bush Says Sending Jobs Abroad Can Be Beneficial.'' Now, this is pretty hard to understand. The President of the United States, his top economic adviser would issue a report saying it is a great thing we are sending jobs overseas.”
