It's nice to know I'm not the only one who notices how ridiculous MSM's coverage of the economy is.

What I remember most was, during the Reagan administration, at the ripe age of 13, how the media kept harping on how awful the economy was two years into Reagan's "revolution." The stock market had tumbled, interest rates were truly astronomical, and it seemed everyone was either in an unemployment or gasoline line. And then suddenly, say, around 1983, almost overnight the reports stopped being about how bad it was and started crowing when "the recovery would end." Addled as I was with teenage hormones, I quite distinctly remember shouting at the TV, "end?!? When did you sonsofbitches ever admit it'd started?!?"

I'm pretty sure my yellow-dog mom tossed a shoe at me. She still does.

After all, being right (in more ways than one), doesn't mean you get to swear.
