The deficit! It just came out of nowhere!


Well, no ... no, it didn't. I'm glad I could clear that up for you.

Like over at pogge's, we crazy lefties point out that there is a deficit and are ignored. And again we are right.

A bunch of us quoted Mike a lot during the election and were laughed at...

It is also like the Harper claiming that no one saw this coming, you know the recession,... Of course Garth Turner preaching about the economic downturn for the last two years doesn't count,... or all the other media types,... or those other "Economist",...

Yup the recession and the deficit, like it was you know,... impossible to predict,...

Apparently Harper is now admitting to being an incompetent economist since, while he couldn't see it coming, a couple of bloggers could - and found the numbers to prove it.

You don't suppose he was lying do you?

Seems that those are the only alternatives.

From the Mike Watkins link:

A child, let alone a trained economist like Stephen Harper, can easily see that one of these things is not like the other, one of these things is not the same:

Umm...no, not if that child is named 'Patrick'.

wv = "submati" (very old Latin for 'failed at math'?)
