69. I know, he and Snow Job are working real hard to make it happen
The suddenly scheduled revamp of the old indoor pool and removing of the media to other digs is stage one. But, ya know what's gonna happen? People will get ticked off. They may get away with it in short term, but you know how those reporters are, they have their little tape recorders, and they'll record everything to get it EXACTLY RIGHT. And pretty soon, someone in the room will have a hissy fit, and the tape will reveal what we aren't being told...and that's IF they can convince the public to make this go away....

Consumer Confidence Hits 7-Month Low

WASHINGTON - Consumer confidence sank to a seven-month low as sticker shock from rising gasoline prices made Americans anxious about the economy's prospects and the strain on their own budgets.

The RBC CASH Index, based on results from the international polling firm Ipsos, showed confidence at 67.1 in early May. That marked a big deterioration from 89.4 in April.

The new confidence reading was the lowest since October, when the country was still reeling from the devastation and fallout wrought by the Gulf Coast hurricanes, including high energy prices.

<SNIP>

"People think, `Oh my God, I'm paying $3 a gallon now.' Then when they look out into the future and they think it may be $4 a gallon. It is particularly depressing," said Bill Cheney, chief economist at John Hancock Financial Services.

Great question...NO ANSWER FROM Snotty...we are trying to BREAK OUR DEPENDENCE on foreign oil, he sez!

And he used the phrase PLAN FOR VICTORY...what a joke.
