No doubt true. They are politicians after all.

<lie then and then hope wishful thinking bails you out, same as people buying a stock all the way down.> You know as well as I do that Truth is a lie and "they" only lie in order to tell the Truth. I was one of those people who bought the Gold Miners all the way down from late 1998 to October 2000. The Bear killed me in a way because at one point I gave up all hope. Hope is supposedly Human, right? But I held on because of my Idea. It was real good to see the Miners rise from the ashes. It was real profitable too. But it wasn't worth it because I lost some of my Humanity in the process. It was blood money. Once the Bear gets in your soul, all innocence is lost and it's never the same again. Laughter helps. Live every day as if it's your last....

right, DirtyMan... they're dumb as hell, political animals the bond revolt in the spring was result of pure horse shit it may have accomplished something for GreenMan though he is frightened of the carry trade size, hedge fund size serving them notice got the job done, served notice in my view, the bond market called the economy's bluff and the Bushy Admin's and the Fed's Greeny blinked Bushy Boys are too dumb to blink they will take it in the shorts, and sand into open eyes !!! this Mankiw Econ Team at the White House is the dumbest in about 20-30 years I really believe the USGovt Admin thought they could perpetuate the lie until the real recovery showed up they are victims of their own shitty economic policy they like outsourcing, wrong they ended subsidies to households in jobless benny extension they planned no new tax rebates they expected tax breaks for wealthy to result in new jobs it did, but in Asia meanwhile the Federal Reserve got caught themselves the bond market dictated to them to raise rates I dont think Greeny minded really though he wanted to stem the growth of hedge fund activity they have lied more in the last 6-9 months than before chock it up to election year politics dominating the truth and of course, Mankiw is as dumb as a post he name dropped his "Harvard Students" today pretty lame they are probably smarter than he is I know I am, as are my 5 best friends / jim
