Some fun stuff from AG:

Scumbria,

I think you exaggerate the situation, hoping to convince me that you were right and I was wrong. Only when I am in a food line and sleeping in a box under an overpass will I then admit to my confusion.

In the meantime, AG continues to be my hero. ;~))

Sir Scumbria, Re: Some fun stuff from AG:

LOL

Beyond your cogent comments allow me to add:

Greenspan endorsed accelerating the tax cuts, saying that would be needed in any event to smooth out the economic impact of the government's goal of eliminating this decade the more than $3 trillion in national debt held by the public.

"And should current economic weakness spread beyond what appears likely, having a tax cut in place may, in fact, do noticeable good," Greenspan said.


Interpretation -- "And there's a limit to how fast we can drop interest rates, so I sure hope the tax rates come down PDQ 'cause if they don't the economy's screwed!"

(I personally think that there's no escaping a recession at this point but that 1/4 point cut would be lots better than 1/2 right now, just 'cause there's nothing worse than jerking an economy around in a hurry. Stability counts for a lot. )
