Phil Gramm: America "a Nation of Whiners"

One wonders if the media will give this shocking statement by Phil Gramm, McCain's chief economic adviser, the same wall-to-wall coverage they gave to the fake umbrage that swirled around Gen. Wesley Clark's recent comments:

"We may have a recession; we haven't had one yet. We have sort of become a nation of whiners," he said. "You just hear this constant whining, complaining about a loss of competitiveness, America in decline" despite a major export boom that is the primary reason that growth continues in the economy, he said.

Hmm, are we a nation of whiners or are millions of Americans outraged at the dire financial straits they are in after 8 years of Bush and McCain's economic policies? I'll go with the latter.

Don't forget, McCain said back in April, when referring to the economy and gas prices, that “a lot of our problems today, as you know, are psychological.”:
