CJ and I are both from Texas, we KNOW what a ner-do-well W was in his younger days. His family had a crew to run around behind him and FIX Senator Bush's embarrasments. The Rather report on his ducking his TANG service was spot on, but was discredited by accepting evidence that was falsified. That was HARDLY ALL the evidence.

And still, nearly half of Americans are wishing he were back in the presidency. The most hated man in America and half of the country thinks he is better than the nitwit you elected.

Good job.

Somebody correct me if I got this wrong. I have a hard time believing it my self. So far this week we have:

>>>Bentway looking down on Bush for drinking in his youth.
>>>tejek looking down on the level of decency represented by Palin and Huckabee.
>>>Shepard looking down on the ethics of Jesus's followers, and religion in general.

Falsified documents, and misrepresented documents was all the evidence.

Trade Deficit Surprise

12/10/2009 12:57 PM EST

The trade deficit surprised us all, dipping to $32.9 billion, when expectations had been for $35.7 billion. A declining trade deficit boosts real GDP. Exports were up $3.5 billion, while imports were up only $0.7 billion. It could be that the decline in the dollar is finally swinging the balance of goods toward the U.S.

An organization called Macroadvisors tracks GDP with each announcement, and its reading is now at +3.8% for the fourth quarter. If Friday's business inventory report should be around the expected +.2% estimate, then GDP estimates will probably have to go up. The bond market won't like that, but the dollar will.
