All of the evening news shows will paint this as "bad news for the economy," since these new homeowners will have little left after their transactions to spend on other consumer items. They will also manage to find home buyers who took their money OUT of 401(k) plans to use as down payments, because of "fears about the economy."

I should write for these guys. I know their template designs perfectly.

as signs of the long recovering economy take hold, it will be morbidly fun to watch the fear seize hold over the news media and the DNC in particular. Some top DNC officials are probably just now coming out of rehab treatment from November 2002, too. So sad.

because of "fears about the economy." they will say "fears upon the uncertain economic future", just to hammer home how risky and doubtful continuing Republican government and Bush in particular is perceived by all. (or should be)

You forgot to mention that all of the people who sold those homes are now, at least temporarily, "homeless." Expect Derrick Z. Jackson and Robert Kuttner to blame Bush for the months's "surging homeless population."

You would be great writing the gloom and doom stories based on wet dreams instead of reality. I could help with a few headlines.
