I'm sorry, BTK. Maybe I'm not understanding. Are you saying our economy is not in trouble and that somehow the media has blown this out of proportion? Maybe it hasn't hit you, but it certainly has hit hundreds of thousands of others. I would love to hear what the the folks at GE or the AA pilots or the thousands and thousands of others losing jobs would have to say. What exactly do you mean by "media induced economic depression"? I'm really baffled. :dontknow:

As for Bush, IMHO, you can't buy intelligence and you can't hide stupid for long. So, to me, he became very transparent.
