Yesterday, Charlie and I both went after McCain for saying, “the fundamentals of this economy are strong.” It sounded to us like McCain was totally detached from reality, and thought the economy was doing great. But it turns out that when he said “fundamentals,” he didn’t mean any real measure of economic performance – he meant that American workers are awesome!
U-S-A! U-S-A!
You’ll notice that at the end of the video, he also says that he knows how to resolve this economic crisis, but he doesn’t really elaborate. Well, apparently, the first step of this plan is to form a commission to try and figure out some sort of plan. At which point, I guess, McCain will give them some kind of super-secret decoder ring so they can figure out what his original plan was all along and implement it. Problem solved!
