Archie: You are wrong as usual.

I didn't say "liberals" seek bad news, I said Democrats seek out bad news if it will advance their political agenda. I could provide numerous examples, including quotes like the most recent where Harry Reid said Teddy Kennedy's death could be helpful to Democrats. Reminds me of an old Yoko Ono joke about living off dead beatles but I can't figure out how to rework it match Obama/Reid/Pelosi living off dead Kennedy's.

I did not cast doubt or suspicion on the good news but it is instructive to our audience as to what constitutes good news for a liberal. For liberals like you, the good news is not that the economy is improving, it is that the improvement is being attributed to the Messiah's porkulus plan. If the economy tanking were beneficial to liberals and their favored politicians you would be all for it as we saw at the end of Bush's term and during the last election cycle....bad news for America (be it job losses, bankruptcies or deaths in Iraq or Afghanistan) was good news to Democrats. Regardless of the administration, conservatives want what is best for America which is why we want Obama to fail in implementing his programs.

What I was impugning was the conclusion that the improvements seen in certain areas of the economy can be attributed to the porkulus plan. I proved my point with facts, logic and a reasonable analysis thereof. I even asked you to respond with something reasonable but you stayed true to form and totally missed the mark. You really need to read more slowly and analyze what you are reading instead of these illogical, emotional and baseless responses.
