Love this line from the NY Sun (supposedly conservative)---"Stock indices around the world plunged yesterday on pessimism over America's ability to claw its way out of a recession, with markets from Berlin to Bombay posting large losses."
We're in a recession? Q2 was 4% growth, Q3 was almost 5% and Q4 will probaly be about 1.5%. What recession?

And of course CNN’s Breaking News headline on their site is “The Fed, confronted with recession fears, cut a key interest rate by three-quarters of a percentage point today.”

The one the media and the dims want to blame on W. And use as an excuse not to make the tax cuts permanent.
I still think all of the concern about the economy is the worry of what a dim congress will or will not do.

"What recession?"Amazingly like the Quagmire in Iraq, innit? Making it look like we're all gonna be homeless and starve benifits the Democrat presidential candidates. IMO that is 100% of the media hysteria mongering.
