You said,
Naz up 60% this year. Dow up 30%.

I say,
Recovery Or Snow Job?

The CEO economy is doing better, but on Main Street the news is grim.

So when is Bush's staff going to come out and talk about how jobs are a lagging indicator again? Challenger Gray and Christmas don't think Snow's projections of 150K jobs/month can be achieved. 150K is nothing, that is barely attrition. We've got 4 million people severely underemployed, engineers working at starbucks etc.

For laughs you should go hang out on one of the right wing threads, they were practially writing Bush's acceptance speech for another term when the 7% GDP figures came out. Anybody actually dealing with this economy on a day to day basis can see we have some severe issues here. Larry Kudlow has come up with a new number called "household employment" that he is using to explain why US workers are not competitive. THe Bush WH is in severe denial.
