I've posted about seeing the same commercial several times here on FR. Perhaps you first saw it last summer, but I believe it was almost a year ago when I first saw it. And you are correct -- there was not one single indicator pointing to a recession. They wanted it...they marketed it...they got it.
Here is a thread from last March. Check out the tin foil hat comments. Wonder what they are saying now?
Secret "closed door" meeting with Congress (3/14/08)
Check out 3 of the listed items that were discussed:
1. the imminent collapse of the U.S. economy to occur by September 2008,
2. the imminent collapse of US federal government finances by February 2009,
3. the possibility of Civil War inside the USA as a result of the collapse,
They should go away and start playing with their selves. I do no pay any attention to those phony poll numbers they come up with anyway.
POTUS is over Obama’s pay grade.
Wow! Thank you, JaN. I forwarded that link to others. Unreal!
Your post #128 stuck with me all night. You said much of what I have thought, and said, in the past couple of years. So, I spent most of the day doing a little research.
You said: I absolutely blame the MSM and advertising for the recession. They always referred to the “R” word in their news reports, even though the indicators did not show this, last year.
While I agreed with your statement, what I found was stunning. A website came on line late in 2004 and appears to be nothing more than a propaganda organ to distort and outright accuse the Bush administration of cooking the books. I believe it is part of the Soros propaganda machine to bring about the economic collapse just before the election. He was NOT happy about losing 28 million in 2004 on J Effin! Check this out!

• Stagflation or worse signaled by key indicators;
payrolls boosted by unusual seasonal adjustment.
December, 8th, 2004
• Stagflation signals intensify, a recession warning is possible in the next two months, and the dual deficits and the dollar do matter!

• Recession signals remain borderline as stagflation intensifies
February, 9th, 2005
• The current economic picture remains one of stagflation. The view for later in the year, however, increasingly looks like recession, as key indicators keep flirting with generating a recession warning. No solid warning, however, is in place, yet.
April, 5th, 2005
• Contrary to conventional Wall Street wisdom, high inflation and recession can co-exist Inflationary recession is about to replace the stagflation of the last couple quarters. Slowly increasing weakness has been evident in many economic indicators, and the first formal recession signal from the SGS early warning system appears ready to kick in within the next couple weeks.
May, 11th, 2005
• The SGS-EWS has been activated, signaling the onset of a formal recession in the later part of the current quarter or early part of third-quarter 2005.
June, 8th, 2005
• The SGS-EWS was activated last month and continues to signal the onset of a formal recession this month (June) or early in third-quarter 2005.
July, 13th, 2005
• The 2005-2007 inflationary recession continues to unfold and appears ready to offer up its first real data shocks of the cycle:
Take careful note of the dates and the terms used.
The only two pollsters that I trust are Ras and Survey USA. The other pollsters are media shills for the Left. For example, the Pew Research had a poll a week before before the election that had Obama leading 53-39. Then a few days later, Pew did an adjusted poll that showed Obama winning 52-46. Which was the right margin. After the election, Pew proclaimed themselves the most accurate pollster and released a media study about Fox News being biased against biased against Obama while the other networks were unbiased against Palin.
