Poor word choice reveals super-bias

No, seriously, don't worry; our beloved leader has redeemed the economic woes facing our country! Retail sales this month (the biggest spending month of the year) rebounded with an increase, no a leap of -- that's right -- 1.3%!!!!!!


Compare that with last October's 1.4% increase over September retail sales, and that's actually a decrease in growth. But that's a statistical-interpretation that messianic-liberal newspapers only use in regards to things like unemployment filings; i.e. "New jobless claims have dropped 20% this quarter" -- which means that 80% as many people as last quarter lost jobs this quarter, but the wording makes it sounds like jobs opportunities are on the rise.

The speed at which our economic troubles are increasing is decreasing, and the speed at which our retail sales are increasing is also decreasing; it looks like everything is coming to a standstill.

I definately aggree! I too and losing less money each month - but I'm still losing it. Often people when ask me my political beliefs - and while I'm independent in most issues, more liberal in some social policies, conservative on fiscal policy - in reallity I'm a Gramcian Marxist - a certain sect of Marxism that sees the the control of information, media, and academia (as opposed to physical resources) is what keeps the status quo the status quo.

That's whe the White House (currently) fights so strongly against talk radio and Fox news - they want to control the flow of information and put down the revolution of counter-information.
