He's managing the economy as he used to manage Arbusto or Harken. Not a very positive sign; in this case it's not likely that one of daddy's buddies will appear with a timely merger offer. What the heck could any President do about a burst bubble? I'm not keen on most of his initiatives either (whatever you've got, a tax cut will cure you), but there is rather little that any President could do at this point aside from talk tough on corruption and make encouraging noises, which Bush is doing. He has no power to put the bubble back together again.

How about getting Paul Romer to run commerce. It would help Romer in his quest for the Nobel. How about making Brian Auther a special advisor to president on the economy. Speed up his Nobel as will. Hey, you even rent Jack Kemp or some idea. Let's get our entreneurs funded. Let's lover the capitail gains tax. Lets' get money back to more.

Of course these days Marvin would get some Prozac and become Marvin the Slightly Sleepy Robot with bad dry my so he needs to drink two bottles of water and pee all day long and then in night I can't even get the job finisheed.
