if Georgie Bush will mention Exxon's "record quarterly profit" of "$10.71 billion in the fourth quarter" in his SOTUS? I mean what other good economic news does he have? GM laying off hundreds of thousands? Ford doing the same? IMB cutting benefits? Alcoa doing the same? GDP growth slowing in the fourth quarter of 2005? Stagnant stock market? Gasoline prices soaring? Crude oil poised to hit $70/barrel again this week? Trade deficit growing quarter by quarter? Budget deficits as far as the eye can see?
