Obama: Economic crisis 'not as bad as we think'WASHINGTON (AP) - Confronting misgivings, even in his own party, President Barack Obama mounted a stout defense of his blueprint to overhaul the economy Thursday, declaring the national crisis is "not as bad as we think" and his plans will speed recovery.
Challenged to provide encouragement as the nation's "confidence builder in chief," Obama said Americans shouldn't be whipsawed by bursts of either bad or good news and he was "highly optimistic" about the long term.
Wait... I thought this was the gravest threat ever... three days of good news in the stock Market and it's all smiles?
I dunno bout ya'll, but this is just... appalling.
