The oil price was a reaction to a weakened dollar in the wake of the employment numbers. Thus the rest of the gang sh*t their pants.
Friday the dollar slipped some more, a prognosticator predicted $150/barrel oil within a month and Israel threatened to bomb Iran. Anyone can pick and choose their reasoning to suit their argument. The bottom line is that we depend on the stuff too much. Cut usage and we all benefit. My vote is for a four day work week, electric cars and mass transit for everyday travel and leave the petroleum based products to aviation related activities for the time being.

Sure!
A small sample of some other predictions and prognostications from the Bush administration:
The deficit will be small and short term.
It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months.
The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him.
We know where they are.
A balanced federal budget remains a high priority for this president

Just illustrating that predictions made by this administration are generally worthless - the context being Paulson's prediction about the economy in your cited article.
I don't understand, given this administration's record of total ineptitude in almost every area, how you can believe anything any of them say.

If the definition of something is dependant solely upon the subjective feelings about things, then it seems to me that there is a problem.
How many people out there have said, "I felt like I did great on that test." Yeah? Well, after scoring, you got a 64 out of 100. You felt good, but you scred an "unsat."
That's why there should be some form of objective criteria. "I don't need actual intelligence out there to tell me that Iraq is a terrorist threat. I just talk to everyday people, and they think that war with Iraq will be good for stopping terrorism."
That's the reason why I don't like to base my ideas or thoughts on what everybody else is feeling. If I wanted that, I'll just read my horoscope.
I'll stick to objective evidence, thank you. And I'll look at the opinions of everyone as what it is called - "The Consumer Confidence Index." It seems to be exactly what kallend was talkign about. The CCI doesn't say whether we're in a recession.
My wife is hotter than your wife.
