It's all how you define basically strong

by: Jason Springer

Thu Apr 17, 2008 at 03:02:04 PM EDT



Third District Republican Congressional Candidate Chris Myers offered some comments regarding the state of the economy the other day...
Myers called the economy "basically strong" during an interview on 1210 AM.  

Now because I am no economic expert, just some guy who paid well over $3.00 a gallon for gas last night, I used the trusty google to do a quick news search for headlines with the keyword economy...
  • McCain Says Tax, Spending Cuts Will Spark Economy (Udpate1)
  • Economy sends signals of more weakness to come
  • Sallie Mae posts 1st-quarter net loss
  • Oil prices high, economy bad
  • Will People Skip The Movies in a Down Economy?
  • Inflation answers: How bad is it, and why?
  • Marriott profit falls as US economy slows
    • The term out of touch comes to mind. Then again, Myers is a defense contractor so the economy is probably doing rather well for them.  I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it just depends on your definition of basically strong.

    So who wants a piece of Chris Myers economy? n/t (4.00 / 2)

    Out of touch or deliusional? (0.00 / 0)
    He donates to Lautenberg and now is sure the economy is "basically strong"?

    You can really tell he has surrounded himself with people that cannot see or are bothered by downturn that is happening around them.  

    it's just more Bush (4.00 / 1)


    I have to think of a witty signature about Frank LoBiondo
