WASHINGTON - Fresh off a Western campaign swing, President Bush (news - web
sites) told Americans on Saturday that the economy is growing stronger and
more jobs are being created despite Democrats' claim that he presided over a
downturn for the country.
"Time and again, our economy has defied the gloomy predictions of
pessimists," Bush said in his weekly radio address.
"Because of the hard work of so many Americans, and because of the good
policies in Washington, D.C., our economy is strong, and it is getting
stronger," the president said in remarks taped while he was in Washington
state.
"America has added more than 1.4 million new jobs since last August. Our
economy has grown at the fastest pace in almost two decades. And the
recession was one of the shortest and shallowest in modern American history."
