John Snow - BushCo Treasury Secty is on CNBC right now.
It's really funny. Ron Insana has his feet to the fire talking about the economy and Snow is doing a lot of "Ummmm" and "Ahhhh" trying to keep a line of bullshit going. What is really funny is the box is right beside Snow's face showing the Dow is down 125 and the NASDAQ is down 32.

4. Snow is "optimistic" about 3rd and 4th quarter growth
Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 01:35 PM by ParisFrance
Last month he said he was very optimistic about growth in July as he predicted 200,000 jobs. Now, this draws a parallel which leads me to suspect slow job growth overall in the future. I would like intergrity and honesty from the the Bush administration. If the jobs are not really coming, then do not decieve the American people.

6. They deceive the American people because
it's three months till election day and they know deceit works. It's the only thing they're good at.

12. You have to look like Zippy to make sense w. these Bozos
Maybe Insana and the rest of the "What Stocks Are Hot" crowd could try that for a change.

7. Is the economy still turning the corner?
Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 01:37 PM by sangh0
And is this corner turning anything like that noose they told us about at Tora Bora? They kept telling us the noose was getting tighter and tighter, and then one day, that frigging noose just up and disappeared. I really hope that corner sticks around.

And what happens if something else is turning that same corner, but from the other side? Are they going to bump into each other and screw everything up, or will they exchange phone numbers and maybe go out on a date?

Dow 9,814.29 -148.74 (-1.49%)
Nasdaq 1,780.73 -40.90 (-2.25%)
S&P 500 1,064.55 -16.15 (-1.49%)

9. If you can't blind them with brilliance then baffle them with BS....
That's about all anyone in the Bush WH which controls the media needs to know. Shit...forget all those tacky numbers,just tell the sheep that everything is getting better day by day.
