This is what you get from Codpiece's gang when you tell them the truth when in reality Cod and gang want to lie to the public.....

washingtonpost.com

Bill Clinton gets a hummer and the wife of a govenment official that tells Cod the truth, gets a death sentence....and the wingers wanted Clinton run out of Washington... Where is the outrage?

and the only thing you can ever say is "codpiece", which I suggest is actually strapped to your nose, so you are reminded daily of your plight.

David Wessel, writing in the "Capital" column of the WSJ last Wednesday, quotes Nobel laureate Robert Solow, who disparages those who say that the productivity revolution makes jobs disappear. Mr. Solow says, "The notion that jobs are lost permanently is a mistake. Particular jobs disappear. But the need for labor is always there as long as we're not saturated with goods and services." As far as this goes, he is exactly right. There is always somebody who wants you to do something, and will pay you money to do it. Just ask any woman who resorts to prostitution to make ends meet when she loses her job. So, according to Mr. Solow, everything will always be fine and dandy.

Where Mr. Solow's ridiculous argument really falls off the tracks is when you include realized wages in the mix. So even though you lost your $30/hour job making widgets, because now that widgets made in China are so cheap that there is an increased demand for them, you can still get a job selling these cheap widgets at the Wal Mart!

$245 billion in sales and $12 billion from China. Less than 5%. They are so Un-American!
