I suppose if I had 9 houses and if I married a multi-millionaire beer heiress, I would think the economy is fundamentally strong too.

What about the Obama spin when John McCain was asked about leaving a Troop Presence in Iraq after the fighting ends in Iraq. Remember McCain said "make it a hundred"? Then the Obama spin team made it sound like McCain wanted a 100 year war?  Now Obama wants to leave 50,000 Support Troops in Iraq indefinitely after he pulls the Combat Troops out.

You are an ignorant fool, rugger0606. The unemployment rate is 6.1%, a five year high. The quarterly GDP "increase" you report is a cooked annualized stat and everyone (but you) knows it. Real inflation is over 9% and real GDP is flat. The "low interest rates" you tout are meaningless in a credit market that is virtually frozen -- frozen because of a financial meltdown of unprecedented scale resulting from lax-regulation & lax-enforcement policies of the Bush/Republican administration.
