They tried hard to make it a recession, but it just hasn't happened yet. Of course, the liberal media has been claiming we're in a recession for months now, conveniently redefining the term to avoid having to answer the tough question, "What about the formal definition of a recession, as we've known it?"

Of course, Obama will continue to talk down the economy, and if he's lucky, we'll be in one by November.

Liberals seeking power love nothing more than a lousy economy, and if we don't have one, they'll make every effort to create one.

Steve, > What ever happened to the recession, the second quarter GDP growth doubled the first quarter GDP growth...

This is one of the most overhyped, overpredicted recessions that still has yet to appear.

With the AP employing writers from the Thomas Friedman school of "managed economics," I'm not surprised that the mainstream media is contradicting themselves with the negative spin.
