Yeah, but if you exclude food and energy, prices were up 0.2%.

Silly! Don't you know that those things are only excluded when they are going up but when they are going down they are included? Otherwise the peasants might not get a warm fuzzy.

Silly, don't you know both numbers are reported but the whiners only look at the higher (worse) number? Some people are never happy.
