Talkin’ the economy down ping to Today show list.
I think Matt Lauer’s a poopyhead. (Hope that doesn’t get me banned!)
I’m so sick of the MSM types manipulating/trying to manipulate the news. Funny that Matty couldn’t pin Ubama down! :-)
I’m off to shop now! [waves]

It’s safe to say that the economy is headed for recession, the only question is when.
Hey Barack. 166K more jobs added today. Nice.
According to several surveys of public opinion I track, a plurality of people believe we are in a recession. Not far behind is the percentage of people who believe in UFOs.
I can’t stand to watch Lauer no matter what he’s doing. He is the epitome of smarmyness, and my stomach turns whenever I see him on the tube.
Recession:
Two consecutive quarters of decline in real GDP is commonly taken to be a recession. The National Bureau of Economic Research, a private organization, effectively decides when recessions occur, however, and the actual dating process is determined by judgment rather than a formal rule.
Current US figures the week of 11/02/2007
GDP 2nd (07) = +3.8%
GDP 3rd (07) = +3.9%
Interest rates -.25% = 4.5%
+166,000 jobs added
Matt Lauer went to Ohio University but not in the school of business and obviously never studied/audited/sat on economics 101.
Somebody needs to tell Lauer when you suggest to small business types a major tax increase is coming, courtesy of the Democrat control legislature, there are ramifications.
One of the Supermarket tabloids had a front page story that Lauer’s wife had lost 40 lbs agonizing over the sorry state of their marriage and that divorce was inevitable. It was accompanied by the obligatory photoshopped skin and bones pic.
Hard to believe Katy was the brains of the outfit.
