CNN beating the drum for Bush Economy

[Atman]

Check out their web site...it's only 10 o'clock, already they're screaming about American's packing the stores, and that consumers shouldn't wait for big discounts this year. Sheesh.

ITS ONLY 10 O'CLOCK!

1. It's so much easier for the media

when Rove writes all their copy for them.

2. Damn I'm dumb.

I was wondering why all the good economic news, when it's obviously not true, at least not around here. It's the holiday shopping season! Duh! Don't worry! Be happy! Get out there and spend! If you don't, W won't look good, and you know what happens when W looks bad. March! Now! Spend! Spend! Spend! Well, I won't be out there. I just spent $100 to go see Dean in a couple of weeks. No shopping for me.

5. Peace and prosperity

It's all part of the lead up to Memorial Day unveiling of P & P. When one party controls 90% of the wealth, and 100% of the media, shaping the message is a "cake walk."

By next summer, the bush rangers will be hiring, not many, but just enough to move a few numbers and bang a few drums. And as regarding Iraq, next June is the date for a turn over of the Iraqi government to the Iraqi people.

15% of Americans can be unemployed, 15 Americans can be dead in streets of Baghdad every day, and the bush rangers will proudly stick to the story: All hail the king of P & P.
