We have surpluses; we'll find the WMD's; we'll get bin Laden; we'll be welcomed as liberators; FEMA is doing a heckuva a job; the levees will hold; the fundamentals of the economy are strong.

"It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in princes" (Psa 118:8-9)
