Neil Cavuto is a Dope

First off, the same old bull-shit about the media reporting only the bad news out of Iraq instead of the good.

I want to go on record that I support the troops and am thankful for all the sacrifices they have made and all the hardships they have had to endure. To take a page from the New Testament, one can hate the war but love the worrier.

There is no good news to report. Iraq had more services and was safer BEFORE the American invasion. That's the reason 80% of Iraqis want us out. The only group better off are the Kurds, and they don't consider themselves Iraqi.

Then, Neil the asshole asks "The Dow is at record highs, so why don't Americans believe the economy is getting better?" Either he's a nit-wit or he believes we are. For example, if an American company pulls up stakes in America and cuts labor costs by two thirds, by sending the jobs overseas, their bottom line and overall value increases. Because of the tax-breaks on capital gains, the stock holders do great and the workers get f*cked. This is happening over and over, throughout American industries. Most American's make money from working, not just investing. Most Americans can't afford to sit around and watch companies gobble each other up, anticipate those moves,lobby for capital gains tax cuts, and then toast to each other's genius. As my late father would say, some of us have to work for a living. And those of us who feed our families, rely on ever more expensive employer health benefits, work long hours at two jobs, pay increasing fuel prices, higher college tuitions, increased property taxes and diminished pension plans don't figure the economy is doing so good. By the way, you at Faux News might be able to spin the reality we don't know, as you do in Iraq, but there is no way you can spin the reality we actually do know and live in every day.

1. "Either he's a nit-wit or he believes we are."

Or both.
