Just what country is John McCain a citizen of when he states "our economy" ? With the most serious financial crisis since the Great Depression, bank failures looming, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., Merrill Lynch & Co., and American International Group Inc going in the tank, what economy is John McCain living in?

The economic policies of the the last eight years have brought us to this brink. We saw the same failed trickle down economics in the eighties resulting in the savings and loan crisis. Thankfully the fiscally responsible policies of Democratic President Clinton brought us out of the economic disaster left to us by Reagan and Bush I. This time another Bush born with a silver spoon in his mouth has brought this country to the brink of economic disaster, and John McCain, oblivious to the plight of working Americans, thinks our economy is strong. It was the Economy Stupid then, and it is the Economy Stupid now Mr. McBush.

Senator Obama said today "It's not that I think John McCain doesn't care what's going on in the lives of most Americans. I just think he doesn't know. He doesn't get what's happening between the mountains in Sedona where he lives and the corridors of power where he works." - he could not be more on target. John McCain and his lobbyist staff are completely out of touch with working Americans. They do not understand the problems facing American families: rising gas prices, expensive health care or none at all, shrinking wages and savings, and assaults on the rights of American workers. John McCain simply does not have a plan - just more of the same - like a bad movie squeal. America has already suffered through Bush I and II - we certainly can not survive a third with "McBush - Return of the bad economy part III".

Catholic Voters will not be fooled by these failed economic policies that not only result in higher abortion rates, but also take food from the mouths of their children and continue to deteriorate the structure and values of the American Family.
