Let me get this right. You say that the NBER definition of a recesion is better. SteveH gives you the release from the NBER stating that the recession started in 2007, and you still claim that the recession didn't start in 2007?

Just from your posts, no, I do not think there is anything you can help me with.

PS. Can you name one Bush policy that the 110th Congress failed to rubber stamp? the only thing that Congress didn't give Bush is Social Security Privatization.
