We can't afford to right now, we are rebuilding (or creating) two countries infrastructures right now.  Once we are done with them, we will probably have started on another country.  We may end up falling apart before we get around to ourselves.

And this is relevant in what way?

The Dems are trying to say that jobs are going to Asia because of Bush policies, but the Clinton administration had an aggressive policy of trying to find cheap labor for American companies.  Clear enough?

Today, the House minority leader, Representative Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, pressed the attack. "There are more than eight million — more than eight million — Americans who want to be working but are not," she said in a news briefing. "Many of them have lost their jobs due to outsourcing."

so she went and asked those 8 million:

"Would you like to earn about the same thing or less at a job you are qualified for as you make with food stamps, welfare, free housing while you drive around in ur leased lexus or would you like to sit here watch Opra and JSpringer, spit out another kid or two and get a monthly increase?"

hmm - me thinks many/most of those 8 million CHOOSE to be outa work..
