The fundumentals of our economy are strong

[slngsht]

I vaguely recall a certain other person get slammed in the campaign (rightfully so) for making the same remark with identical wording.

 

Really??? which part of the fundamentals of our economy is strong?

 

 

WASHINGTON (AP) - A top presidential adviser says the U.S. is in an "economic war" _ one that is not being won yet.

Economic aide Christina Romer says she agrees with investment mogul Warren Buffett, who used the "economic war" phrase last week to describe the nation's economic woes.

In Romer's words, "We haven't won yet. We have staged a wonderful battle."

Romer heads the president's Council of Economic Advisers. She says the White House believes the fundamentals of the economy are strong. Romer says the administration is looking at the long-term view, not the daily ups and downs on Wall Street.

Romer also says it is premature to talk about a second economic stimulus package that some Democratic allies are seeking.

Romer appeared on NBC's "Meet the Press."

Yeah, I saw the interview. When asked about John McCain making the same statement during the campaign and Obozo taking exception to it. She wouldn't answer the question.

 

Give it a couple of days, it will change again. Tom
