Today Chuck Butler from St. Louis in his Daily Pfennig made this comment:

"OK. speaking of coming from nowhere. is this story I read this morning, titled: World Recession Seen Triggered by Europe Breakdown in a Global Investor Poll. Whoa there! The U.S. never left their recession, so, tell me just how Europe, which isn't the economic engine of the world, caused a World recession , when THE economic engine of the world was mired in their own recession! Just shows to go you that people just don't understand what's going on here in the U.S. and how the media has air brushed over all the rot on the economic vine. "
