These guys must be trained comedians, cracking ridiculous jokes and one liners, one after another, and if it were a sitcom, I would be on the floor, laughing my ass off.

How can you tell if a politician is lying? ans. His lips are moving!

The whole world has been turned upside down. Everything is spun and turned to suit the daily flavour. Just think of the huge economic benefit of that Tsunami. Why, the re-building, jobs, re-investment opportunities are endless. It must be a good thing. Also, think of the unique opportunities for the US to show the Muslims how much they love them.

Can you imagine what a big earthquake here on the West coast would mean? The mind boggles at the possibilities.

"and that shows up in the demand for imports."

Yes indeed. Proof of a good economy is demand for imports and debt. Proof of a healthy man is excessive consumption. A 350 pound man must be extremely healthy; otherwise why would he eat so much?

I am truly sick and tired of all the B.S., but fascinated all the same that any of it is accepted without question. Truly truly Orwellian.

The message from the US has been consistent. The debt doesn't matter, and the real problem is that the rest of the world hasn't caught on. The complaints against Europe and others is that they refuse to "stimulate" their economies enough, to increase demand for US goods and services. The US is leading, showing the way, as usual, "growing their economy".

It is hard to believe that all this will end without some terrible consequences.

That is just the national debt. Not included is personal, municipal, state, corporate etc. etc. If you look closely, you will note that the numbers are increasing by only about five digits, or $40,000/sec. We can do better than that, can't we?
