hee hee! Its funny when it happens to Bush
Even as Bush spoke to a friendly audience in Birmingham, Ala., the Dow Jones industrial average was spiraling downward to 1997 lows. Bargain hunting in the afternoon prompted a rebound that cut losses on the Dow Jones industrials and sent the Nasdaq up slightly for the day.

Jim Jordan, executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, said, "His sermons and his policy proposals have pleased no one and frightened almost everyone."
