The New York Times did a story recently in which it blatantly twisted figures to make you think the economy is going downward. They did it in the simplest manner, emphasizing two years (at the end of Clinton's "reign" and during which the economy was reeling after 9/11) and completely ignoring three later years (under the Bush tax cuts) in which the economy continued the rise that began under Reagan by 4.1%. The Boston Globe did a similar story, using the same scam. And you think the press doesn't lie to you? (Thanks to "News Busters") (News Busters, 8/21/07)
These are short common sense opinions on today's (and yesterday's) news to counter the bulldroppings fed you by the liberal media.
