Don't look at it, don't say it....

Don't even think about it, or it will bite you hard in the ass.

Chris in Paris for AmericaBlog:
Maybe if you're the CEO of Dow Chemical, sure, you don't have a care in the world. Filling the tank in the limo is done by someone else and what decent CEO buys grocery's? For everyone else, a spade is a spade and we call it as we see it.
"We're over-reacting to the recession word," Dow Chemical Chairman and CEO Andrew Liveris told CNBC. "Lots of people get together and talk to each other and people believe the psychology."
Of course. I'm sure all of the multi-million dollar per year salary types who own hundreds of thousands of shares in Fortune 500 companies all have the same questions about this nasty "recession" talk. "Let them eat cake" if you will. This only goes to show just how divided we are as a country. People living in the stratosphere of wealth have no idea how the rest are living. He actually makes the point quite nicely, proving just how clueless he is about life in 2008.
I know! Let's all talk about Andrew Liveris' bank account!

Our peasants are too distracted by Britney Spears and American Idol.

The real revolution happens when the middle class gets totally pissed off and the mega rich are clueless as to the misery of the poor.... and I believe we are arriving at that point very quickly now....

No wonder there are so many Republicans suddenly retiring.
