Oh yeah?

Headline: Bernanke: Danger of downturn appears to have faded

Commentary: Evidently Mr. Bernanke hasn't read the rest of today's news. Maybe someone needs to let him know of the fact that more people than ever are filing for bankruptcy, food stamps and housing foreclosures. This morning I was at the grocery store, an elderly gentleman in front of me had 12 items in his cart. Some soda pop, bread, a couple cans of vegetables milk eggs and
sausage. I think he tossed a candy bar in there at the last minute. His bill came to $46. His electric bill will probably be over a hundred dollars this month because of the heat. I am not sure where Mr. Bernanke is shopping, but he isn't buying his own gas or milk and I'm sure his house is paid off.
