Bush View of Economy at Odds With Forecast
Bush View of Economy at Odds With Forecast
2 hours, 27 minutes ago

By TOM RAUM, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - An economy with blue skies, happy workers and prosperity for all, just around the corner. That's the sunny picture painted Wednesday at President Bush (news - web sites)'s economic conference, where nary a discouraging word was uttered and Bush's second-term priorities were resoundingly praised. In reality, Bush will have a hard time getting any of his major proposals through a skeptical Congress.

1. Bush is an idiot and does not understand the real world
Bush's views are so divorced from reality that it is very sad.

4. Hoover...

... said that, too. And we all know where the economy ended up. Sometimes I think GW wants everything to collapse (as it did in the 30's) to fill the void with what? The impending vacuum left when the US economy collapses is frightening by itself.
