kokopelleWhat Bush's words of wisdom on the current economic woes according to the 03/18 USA Today:
To counter that cycle, President Bush briefly invited reporters into his normally private policy meeting with economic advisers Monday. "One thing for certain, we're in challenging times," Bush said. But he said that the government was "is on top of the situation," adding, "in the long run, our economy is going to be fine."Am I the only person who sees nothingness in these words? His last words are like saying "in the long run it will rain" during a drought. Yeah, it will be fine, but he'll be out of office before than. This is one President that I pray history will remember accurately.

And another thing... nobody can tell me that the "normally private" meeting was conducted in the usual way while the press were there. Please...
