Forecasting Bonafides

by Mr Juggles

From a tweet I put out immediately when the jobs report was released this morning:

Rally time! The new paradigm is not bad news = good news, it’s everything bad has already happened, only good stuff ahead!

Recommendation: Nothing on Heaven, Hell nor Earth can or will make the S&P 500 go down. It has been immunized against negativity.

    If Juggles was Kudlow, he’d find a way to credit this to George W. Bush, while blaming all of the writedowns so far on Pelosi.

    Nancy Pelosi is from California, specifically the San Francisco Bay area. This area has endured some of the worst contractions in the current housing crisis.

    Thusly, Nancy Pelosi is directly responsible for the financial non-crises that President George W. Bush is bravely steering us through with his love of freedom and his freewheeling “progressive” monetary policy.

    The dictionary said:

    “Thusly was introduced in the 19th century as an alternative to thus in sentences such as Hold it thus or He put it thus. It appears to have first been used by humorists, who may have been echoing the speech of poorly educated people straining to sound stylish. The word has subsequently gained some currency in educated usage, but it is still often regarded as incorrect. A large majority of the Usage Panel found it unacceptable in an earlier survey. In formal writing thus can still be used as in the examples above; in other styles this way, like this, and other such expressions are more natural.”

    This is exactly the voice that I was trying to use in my post. An exaggerated sense of self-importance masking an ignorant viewpoint.

    Much like your reply, except I believe yours wasn’t deliberately humorous.
