Inflation rate does not count food or fuel. I say BS!
Self Serving Bastards should be hung.
We keep being told that the inflation rate doesn't include food or fuel and we're expected to be good little children, go back to our corner and quit noticing the cost of stuff!
Romney - if you would talk to the average housewife, trying to feed her family, you would get a lot further than you do trying to defend your position on contraception. (Contraception isn't even an issue, except to the "Distractor in Chief"!)
“Inflation rate does not count food or fuel.”

I never could figure that one out either. I wonder what the REAL inflation rate would be if they were counted in?
Both the total inflation rate and the "core" rate without food or fuel are calculated and published monthly. What is important that month is decided by the MSM, but both numbers are available.
