President Bush.

Not to jump on the political band wagon but I am a Democrat and proud of it. I am not unrepentant as Mr. 5.0 put it. To tell you the truth I don't think he has done that much for our country. Our economy has gone staight to hell and unemployment is up drastically. IMO if you are a minority, a woman, or a lower to middle class person and you are a Republican you are an uneducated idiot. This president of ours doesn't seem to care one bit about the nation's workforce. I'm a union member and the next thing that I and all other union members are concerned about is the fact that Bush wants to get rid of prevailing wages. Now that may not concern most of you but if you're career is in constuction then it should. For those of you who don't know the prevailing wage tis the wage set by union negotiations. And for those of you who don't think we need unions any more you just wait and see what happens to wages, benefits, and working hours. If you like the fact that the standard working week is 40 hours then thank the unions for that, because if the republicans had they're way we'd all be working 60 hours a week for $5 an hour. Sorry had to rant. My mom is disabled and you don't even want me to start on what this joke of a president has done for the disabled community.
