When a ten year old sticks his fingers in his ears and shouts, "LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-I can't hear you!" over and over again, it doesn't make that which he avoids hearing untrue. The same applies to aging Senators from Massachusetts.
Bush, naturally, is shouting the new March jobs numbers from the rooftops.
According to CNN,
President Bush during his Saturday radio address credited his tax relief efforts for what he said was "powerful confirmation" of a growing economy.
Kerry's response is to keep repeating the same old nonsense he picked up from Howard Dean back in September.
"I guess we just see things differently," [Kerry] said. "I believe America is stronger when we create jobs at home. I believe we need a new direction. That's why I have a detailed economic plan to put jobs first and create 10 million new jobs in the next four years."
He then goes on to tell some pithy story about Radio Flyer little red wagons straight out of Citizen Kane. Should Kerry lose in November, I wonder if his concession speech will involve inexplicable references to "Rosebud." (Though, in the case of Kerry, Rosebud would likely be some thoroughbred pony from his fifth birthday party rather than a sled).
