You may have hit the nail on the head. Weren't we told in Sept/Oct that we would most likely enter a recession (except for the Con party), and now we hear that the US was already in a recession in late 2007? How could they probably go into a recession if they were in one already?

Hmm, it took the media/authorities a full year to let that out? I wonder if these authorities are the same ones who are trying to keep the price of gold down?
