Sorry—not true. Consumer confidence is down and no outcome based gov’t report or poll or eftist university analysis can change that. When I asked for specifics I meant mundane real life things like consumer spending, consumer saving, house starts, new machine orders, factory production increases, shipping increases, unemployment reduction etc. All these real life indicators are down. Hell Onada just killed 20,000 Canada to Louisiana pipeline jobs. And there are over 20,000 pipeline jobs in Alaska awaiting EPA approval. Oh, and lets not forget the Boeing plant near Charleston, SC, Onada is taking to court because SC is a right to work state. Several hundred jobs at stake there.

Don’t know about you, but I don’t see any ray of sunshine in any of that.

Job growth is low but near replacement level and consumer confidence is up for some ungodly reason. My brother is in a technical field and he just got a job after 11 mos out of work , and theres more listings in certain technical fields than 3-6 months ago, from my perusal .

Its just a bit anecdotal and its not across the board obviously but the Rasmussen Poll (which is not a "leftist" poll) is reflective of "something".
