Hey Glenn, Just When Did the Recession Start?
Glenn Beck used his god-like powers in 2007 to predict the country would be in recession before 2008 elections. Really? I had been in recession for a couple of years by that point.

2. Recession has a formal definition, I believe. Two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth.

4. Yes, yes, I'm aware...
..of that. In fact, that article discusses personal recession and the easy recognition of the coming "official" one.

3. People are not Gods and they do not have God like powers.
That is a trap to get a person to think they are more then they are.

8. since God made me in his image, I'm guessing I do have all of God's powers
I'd hate to think God made me on an off day.
