Better Economy by Dale Carnegie

Please, please, please tell me the president didn't suggest yesterday that positive thinking is what is direly needed to change the economy around? I've known dozens of people who have "positively thought" their way into losing their homes, bankruptcy, and total screwup of their lives.

Wait... I have an idea.

Mr. President? You take back all those tax cuts you aimed at the wealthiest Americans - thus drastically reducing our current debt - and we'll think more positively that maybe America won't turn into the largest debtor's prison in the world. We even promise - and our word may mean more to us than yours appears to mean to you (or certainly to most of us).

Bush also suggested that if Democrats were elected in November, we'd have nothing but fiscal chaos. I won't delve into that one too deeply because my ribs are still is spasm from the first time I read this yesterday. Let's face it - regardless of your desired candidate - the only way the economy can get worse is if Mr. Bush's tush is in 1600 Pennsylvania after Election 2004. And wait'll you see who he pardons.
