Roubini...was a senior economist in the White House and the Treasury Department in the late 1990s.

Gee, I wonder which administration THAT was?

Wonderful point! Why does everybody sees these things negatively?

...Roubini repeated his call that the U.S. would be in recession in 2007

Just in time for the presidential campaigns. What a coinkydink!

Yeah, and that 10-yr bond rate was what, about 16% during the Carter days?

I remember money market rates at 16%, so that should be about right.

Wait a minute, we survived that...

PFA?

More like "POOHA".

Or maybe the 'A' in your acronym would more accurately represent another word that you sit on.

I'm cashing out before the recession hits. Then my next home purchase... should be eh - a buyer's dream!

Good luck with that strategy, I am still waiting for Southern California real estate to go back to the prices they were in 1963

While many economists share Roubini's concerns about imbalances in the global economy and in the U.S. housing sector, he stands nearly alone in predicting a recession next year.

He's not really alone...leftists are hoping for a recession. Pelosi, Reid, The Swimmer, Hitlery, and the entire cabal of lunatics at moron.org are hoping and wishing for painful economic times to fall upon Americans.

Clearly the guy wants "in" to a Democrat administration following the 2008 election, and he's doing his bit for "the cause" to try and talk gloom and doom so that the Demo/Commies running for Prez can wail and gnash their teeth about the worst recession since 1801... Folks, this is just one of the early shots in what will be a planned all-out assault by the media and the other usual suspects intended to make Americans feel insecure and to plant the seeds for a Demo/Commie coup...

I was kidding.... the Democrats seem to be the only ones praying for the economy to tank. And they're as mad as hell it hasn't happened yet. From how I look at it, I don't consider that a winning strategy for a political party.

Yep, Dems pumping up the gloom and doom right before the election. We've seen it for the last two cycles, 2002 and 2004.

I just had a flashback to the 2000 election, during which
Greenspan was tightening...and tightening...and tightening
...and the stock market was falling...and falling. I seem
to remember then-candidate Bush warning that the economy
was slowing at that time...and guess who was accusing him
"trying to talk down the economy"?

The 2001 recession, if compared to other recessions, was chicken feed. It wasn't even close to anything else.

Having said that.... We're DOOOMMMMMEEEED!
