Apparently, you don't ask much of your national leaders... not much at all.

You must have loved Enron's accounting, who's revenue and expenses projections were so imaginative... but are absolutely dwarfed into insignificance by the Bush administrations fanciful budget numbers.

TRADE POLICIES OF THE CAVEMEN (09/22/03)
by the Mogambo Guru

"... Just as Michael Boskin showed the government how to lie with statistics about inflation - as if the government ever needed any help with lying, since they seem to cleave to it so naturally - our sainted leaders make ludicrous assumptions about adjusting prices for quality and the substitution effect and all the rest of that lying crapola that any second-grade kid can easily see through. But to get with the program and show that I am a team player, I want to
