All Gustav all the time has given the media an excuse, if not an imperative to say little if anything about the Republican Convention.

Gustav has also given the cable outlets license to say little about the transfer of power to the Iraqis in Anbar Province, a significant measure of our success in Iraq.

You can see why Don Fowler is so giddy.

It’s got to be frustrating when the facts refuse to align with your world view.

Notwithstanding the determined endless repetition of a dark narrative about the American economy, GDP in the United States grew at an annual rate of 3.3%; strong economic growth.

What is repeatedly astounding is the resilience of the American economy in the face of significant shocks since 2001.

The desperate chase for bad economic news is reminiscent of the waterlogged network pawns sent out to wander along abandoned streets and beaches this morning desperately searching for property damage in the Gulf Coast region.
