Bush Proud U.S. Economic Woes Can Still Depress World Markets

November 6, 2007





WASHINGTON, DC?While speaking to a group of White House reporters, President Bush fended off questions about the weak state of the dollar, the expected long-term deficit caused by Social Security and Medicare payments, and a faltering housing market by assuring reporters that the U.S. economy's ability to have such a widespread negative impact on the world only further proves it is "easily the best."


"Our recent credit crisis alone has been enough to depress share prices in Japan, Rome, China, and Brazil," a smirking Bush said during a press conference Thursday.


"Sounds to me like our economy is still pretty powerful." Bush later added that he was equally proud of the impact U.S. foreign policy has had over the past six years, adding that only a truly great president could be capable of fostering so much hatred across the globe.

The History Channel describes Bush politely as not inquisitive. I've got a better description.

Sounds like a six year old commenting on quantom physics.

Shelly changed her tar.

This was more alarming to me than any of yesterday's news, the stock market, the price of gold, oil, the Bushwacker's stupid remarks, etc.

I know. It's like Nostradamus has spoken.

Dear Lord, (A Global Prayer to All Americans Today)..........

I know that I am a very left wing, Nancy Pelosi Democrat, have been and always will be, I will not change that ever...but...

Please God, put someone, anyone, of knowledge, character, creativity and strength in the White House in 2008. I do not now care if it is a he or she, is a Dem, Republican, White, Black, or out-of nowhere Independent (Ron Paul??) Help the U.S. pull through this, Lord.

Says something about us that we fell for it - or does it say something about Bush

After rereading it, I think it says a lot about Bush, that noone even questioned it!

What a moron! I'd start a countdown, but since I could turn out to be ticking off the days until Hilary takes over, it might not be as big a cause for celebration.
