Presidential News Conference 4/29/08

[Keno]

Anyone else watching this on NBC? Bush is actually giving some decent answers on energy, food prices, and foreclosures. He got a little snippy when someone asked an '08 race question though, haha.

You'd stutter too if every media outlet in the world analyzed every single word that came out of your mouth. Look at the content of his answers, not how he conveys them. And no, I'm not a Bush supporter.

EDIT: Wow, he really just laid into congress on a couple economic issues. He's really been speaking the jargon well this conference; I'm guessing he had a group of economists get together with him this morning and can a bunch of answers for him.

Did he make any mention of gas prices. Need to decide whether or not I'm going to accept this job offer I just got! (Would cut commute from 45 to 5 minutes so I may accept anyhow!) It is a 10% payraise too... but, I hate leaving a job I've been at for only 4 months!

He basically flat out denied the summer gas tax moratorium, so for the short run, no, there is no relief. On the intermediary and long run looks I'd say gas prices will decline, but you're going to have to wait a couple/few years.

Dude if they offered you the job already, TAKE IT. If you're still interviewing then stick with what you've got I suppose..
