Default Interesting graphic comparing 2000 to 2008

This is a wonderfully designed graphic to show innumerable comparisons, during President Bush's tenure, from 2000 and from 2008.

For example, Comparisons during President Bush's presidency shows that in 2000 people watched 1502 hours of television. In 2008 that number jumped to 1704.

It's worth looking at the graphic just for the visuals, but the numbers are very interesting as well.

I hope the idea isn't that Bush and his Administration are the direct cause?
My goodness, it's all the crap they allow that causes it.

If the shadow government (the powers that actually run the show, eg: corporations) didn't want drugs in America -- there wouldn't be. This is the most powerful government in the world and they can't solve crime and drugs in the street? If they didn't want it, it wouldn't be there.

What our leadership pays for, it gets.

What are you talking about? Did you actually watch the video?

Edit: I owe Aesa an apology. I thought this thread was the one where I had posted a video, but it's not. My response was totally inappropriate.

I'm hoping if I add another post, this will bump up so people will see it.

I owe Aesa an apology. He correctly responded to my OP, but I got confused and thought this was another thread I had started with a video.

I should have made sure I was right before I wrote my response; obviously, I was wrong, and apologize for my inappropriate response.
