[quote="Professor Tiger"]With all due respect "Professor", shut the hell up. You shut your mouth and do NOT challenge me on this one. You got that? I know way more about this than you do and you would be well served, to read, to listen, and to learn. And you change you attitude, right quick. And maybe (just maybe) there will be hope for you yet that you will not live a life as

Hey IB, I will not shut the hell up and I absolutely DO challenge you on this and I will not change my attitude right quick. You are a certified loon. I fart in your ignorant and wimpy general direction.

I don't know why you would call him a wimp. Obviously he's a fellow member of the He-Man Woman Haters Club.

I think Willard Romney's loss put him over the edge. He still hasn't recovered.

Articles on Reuters home page...why do they lie?

Home Sales Take a Breather, but Prices Hit Five-Year High

WASHINGTON- U.S. home sales unexpectedly fell in June after two straight months of hefty increases, but a surge in prices to a five-year high suggested the housing market recovery remained on course.

U.S. Economic Growth Gauge Rises to Highest Since April 2011: ECRI

NEW YORK- A measure of future U.S. economic growth strengthened in the latest week to its highest in more than two years, while the annualized growth rate also edged higher, a research group said Friday.

Economic Activity Gauge Steady Near 5-Year High

WASHINGTON- A gauge of future U.S. economic activity held at a near five-year high, pointing to an economy that continues to grow at a moderate pace.

Tick, I hope those articles are right and businesses are hiring, for the country's sake. We have had far too many people out of work for way too long.

But when I hear jobs are being created, I fear that what's really going on is businesses are taking a 40 hour a week job with benefits and turning them into two 20 hour/week jobs with no benefits. I'm hearing a lot of that, admittedly anecdotally. Businesses are doing that mostly to avoid Obamacare costs, and on paper, they "created a new job." But that is bad news, not good news.

Like I said, I hope those articles are right.

Weather/hurricanes/high gas prices/excess oil company profits/the housing bubble, and all of Barracky's failures can be blamed on Bush.....but not the anointed one...yeah right.
