The Economy Is Strong

The Super Bowl is the best indicator of our economic strength.  In 2000, companies like petsovernight.com could afford to run multiple advertisments about how they can bring a giraffe right to your door in a cardboard box. 

Last year Cadillac had a six-minute commercial, and others had people who had money coming out the wazoo.

And today, who the hell is advertising?  We have Ed McMahon, the guy who used to give random people checks for $5,000,000, and now he's doing a commercial where he has to give away his belongings to cash4gold.com for money.  What's going on?  And Denny's gave everbody in America a free breakfast.  

And Hyuandai is telling you that if you buy a car from them and you lose your job, you can give them your car back without any impact on your credit.  The other car companies couldn't even afford to run ads.

Even Budweiser has been affected.  Their first ad was about an office meeting trying to cut costs.

And then E*TRADE has to have your 2-year old tell you about the economy.

And then another group of office workers trying to steal Doritos from the vending machine.

So in sum, we're totally screwed!
