Washington needs to stop playing with themselves and get back to work
"Jobless claims above 400,000 are consistent with a recession, and they are also consistent with an economy recovering from a severe recession," said Mark Vitner, an economist at Wells Fargo. "And now that we're stalling instead of recovering, that's pretty disconcerting."-CNN

I'm starting to believe they think they can't do anything about this economy anymore and are now simply trying to divert our attention. And its working!!!
