The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Do they really think it matters to the world what they think about S&P? Do they really think the world is expecting them to say “Way to go, S&P! We’re behind you 100%!”
Don’t know if you caught it, but in the opening creditsfor MTP..they showed a pic of Goolsbee atanding next to David Wu and Obama..Three on a match, anyone?
Our federal government wrote the book on “questionable mathematics.” Americans can no longer believe a word coming out of DC or the media.
...because Goolsbee just screams economic credbility, lol.

We are so screwed.
Don’t worry, Congress is going to investigate S&P! We have nothing to worry about!
(yes, that is sarcasm)
big deal ... 2 trillion is just a rounding error these days. isn’t that what the rulers in DC tell the peons every time we complain about government pork?
Do tell, Austan.
I don't watch Press the Meat (or anything else on NBC [at least not until they put God back into The Pledge Of Allegiance]), did the modulator aks Ghoulsby to show him (or her) the math?
It’s tomorrow’s mathematics, stupid.
America to Goolsby:
YOU’RE FIRED.
Things are looking up for S&P. If it turns out they made an error in paying their taxes then Obama will probably find room for them in his Cabinet.
S&P sez...
“Yes Sir, we did make a math error. It’s actually worse than we thought. You’re downgraded AGAIN!”
Earth to Gooslbee get a new job!
Actually econ czar #4 Goolsbee is scheduled to go back to U. of Chicago soon.
AFAIK there’s been no replacement named.
Not sure how many takers there are for that job.
And now this... they can't wait to investigate.
Makes one wonder.
The former: probably a lot their buddies had connections to the banks and rating agencies in question.
The later: S&P rating is bad press for Obama. Need I say more.
The Dems will sell their souls to protect one of their own, e.g., Bill Clinton (Paula Jones sexual harassment trial).
Austan Goolsbee, boy genius.
This is killing them at the White House. Yet, they remain arrogant. They Democrats are going to be completely wiped out in the next election. No amount of money from George SorryAss or Warren Buffett will help them.
