41% Now Rate Economy As Either "Luscious" or "Stacked"

40% still rate the economy as either "unappealing" or "snaggle-toothed."

There would seem to be a very hot, very sexy tumescence developing in the economy, as it wantonly strains against the fabric of public opinion.

Update: Gallup confirms the trend, now showing a +14 "spread" between those who rate the economy as "pulsing" or "throbbing," versus those who rate the economy as "drooping" or "floppy-nutted."

That's much better than the "limp" +2 "spread" at the past reading.

LOL

Since there's no where else to post this, I'm going to go completely off point and ask this:

Did anyone watching the funeral coverage today notice that Michael Reagan was not sitting with the other Reagan children? But apparently the late Maureen's husband WAS sitting there (with his new fiancee)? I can't this addressed anywhere else, and when I think of answers, I think ACE.

UGH! There was supposed to be a "find" between "can't" and "this" in my above post.

Sorry.

I sense.....BOOK DEAL! Because WANKETTE HQ can really write, and this new format is so edgy.

Let me know if you need an agent, Wankette. I know some folks in New York City who would think this is all no big deal.

I agree. Book deal is definitely in the offing. But when is Ace going to break out the Pulp Fiction reference? You know the one I'm talking about...

Ace, Ace, Ace....

See the problem is that you're looking at the wrong sources. Why that fine fair and balanced newspaper, the Washington Post has the following story on the web today:

Bush Not Profiting From Revived U.S. Economy

Click on the link and you get this front page story:

Economy Provides No Boost for Bush
Foreign Policy Concerns Hurt Approval Ratings

By Jonathan Weisman
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, June 10, 2004; Page A01

Click Here For the Story

So you see, now that they can no longer hide the economic news, they're simply telling us that people, nay not just people, but Bush's people, actual Republicans who voted for Bush last time around just don't believe it's along-term thing. If people who allegedly supported Bush in 2000 don't believe it, why should anyone?

Funny, I don't remember getting a call on this, did anyone else here get a call?

(Oh, and the above post is sex related, since the Washington Post is just asking us to bend over like Washingtonienne. I probably won't get no $400 though...)

Not me. They're just talking out of their ass (hah!).

Senator PhilABuster,

Are you really in contact with agents? If so, please let me know.

Actually, that goes for anyone. Anyone who knows an agent or an editor would be doing me a huge favor by letting me know.

Jimmy,

Thanks. I blogged that.

Geezsh. I'll bet the economy doesn't call me in the morning, either.
