Do you have an answer to this, Jeff?

 Yet none of them are so incorrect you have been able to refute
 them. Not even when I have corrected you on your errors.

 When the country goes deep into debt, saying it's so is correct,
 even if you don't give all the details of how it happened.

 Oh, back to your claim that the "fundamentals of the economy are
 strong", I rebutted that not only with stats, but with detailed
 stats that I tied together to show how your claim was nonsense.
 Actually, repetition of the words of right wing talking heads.

 Do you ever do any analysis of your own?

 If you saw a stat saying 90% of the new cars are green you would
 be correct. Which is how I look at stats.

 JB> Fords.  That is how he does statistical analysis (and I am
 JB> being generous).

 No, you are being childish. Reread any analysis of statistics I
 have posted recently. Can you find any fault with any of them?

 No? I didn't think so.
