ABOUT THE CHEERLEADERS
Not talking San Diego Chargers here. They'll need much more than cheerleading to have a chance at winning in Indy on Sunday. The people I call the cheerleaders-for-a-recession are the ones out in force. Nearly every network newscast anchor and plenty of presidential wanna-be's are now cranking up "the economy sucks" rhetoric... and it's nauseating. ABC, NBC, CBS lead the way in barely hiding their glee when reporting the latest recession talk. One of the more absurd bits of analysis comes from Ms. Erbe (in print) where she has a gut feeling that "immigration" has helped keep the economy afloat longer than expected: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/opinion/347046_erbe13.html
Of course we know that she also means illegal immigration, a view in sync with others who are trying to sell us the idea that illegals paying into Social Security (using faked and/or stolen numbers) prop that system up as well. I'm not buying that or related attempts to talk us into the concept that illegal activity can be "helpful". So the games continue, and the cheerleaders are now pumped up on the steriods of distortion.
