These are the same economists that predicted that recovery would be robust by LAST August.

Economists. What a schtick. If you’re right half as often as your plumber is about the economy, you’re lauded as “brilliant.”

“Except for the unexpectedly severe collapse in economic growth, Romer said, the report has turned out to be “very accurate.”

Except that it was all a big lie, the report has turned out to be very accurate...

“but the recession was far worse than Romer predicted.”

Probably would have been right if they had left the economy alone.

As I watched this whole group seat themselves in power, I have to say Christina Romer had to be the strangest creature I’ve seen in any seat of authority in the White House. And that’s saying a lot with the Obama bunch.

That weird pasted-on smile was like looking at a pudgy clown. Creeped me out....
