I found it a little...er... humorous the way perceptions differ. Different frames of reference and people see different things.

The previous poster seems to perceive ...Obama's tone is troubling - he keeps running down the economy and warning how our worst times are ahead of us. (Exactly what supposed 'Chicken Littlish' style public statement he is referring to is left unstated....

Yet, apparently SIMULTANEOUSLY a well-known Republican wise man is saying pretty mush EXACTLY what the earlier poster was objecting to: GINGRICH: Economic crisis worse than pols admitting. WASHINGTON | Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said today that the US economic downturn is much worse than political leaders admit and predicted the recovery will take three to five years. The financial meltdown points to “a much more profound problem than people think” as American industries and education have lost ground to China and India, Gingrich said.
