What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

Anyone else hear Michelle Bachmann's rock-solid promise that if she was elected president that the price of gas would never go above $2? Even though the president has almost no control over the price of oil? Republicans support craziness.

No, plus she will never be elected, MORON.
 
Did you read the article I posted? Did you see this?

What went wrong in the first quarter?

The largest change was because of an annual event. The Census Bureau completed an estimate of the value of vehicles awaiting sale in 2010, based on data collected directly from dealers.

Until July, the bureau had relied on an estimate from a private company, Ward’s, which counts vehicles but estimates their values. Based on that data, the bureau estimated that inventories had declined by $30.3 billion in the fourth quarter as sales outpaced the arrival of new cars.

Last month, based on new data, it concluded that inventories fell by only $17.9 billion.

The bureau estimates that inventories shrank by an even smaller amount in the first quarter—although it won’t get equally accurate data until next July—but the effect of the revision was to reduce the difference between the two quarters, and thus to reduce the rate of growth.

The bureau estimates that this change alone is responsible for nearly half the difference between its initial estimate of 1.8 percent first-quarter growth and its current 0.4 percent estimate.

A second major change involves the value of imported oil. The bureau announced a permanent change to its methodology last month to improve the way that it calculates the value of oil, and it concluded that spending on imported oil was higher than it had originally estimated. The details are byzantine but the result is clear enough: roughly 0.5 percentage points of growth vanished.


Okay that's fine. What about all the other times growth was re-estimated upwards? Where were you then?

What ill happen to world oil prices since Oblamer wants to stop Syria's exports.

Obama said he had signed an executive order that would:

require all Syrian government assets to be immediately frozen;
ban imports of Syrian-origin petroleum or petroleum products;
prohibit U.S. persons from having any dealings in or related to Syria's petroleum or petroleum products;
and prohibit U.S. persons from operating or investing in Syria.
 
The downgrade was supposed to "destroy" us...

Not much effect, but the administration is going to get even:

Do as we say, not as we do!

You're not making any sense. Just because Obama personally swore off special interest money doesn't mean anyone else did. Why are you holding other people up as hypocrites when they aren't associated with Obama's pledge at all?

Are you just lying?
