So what does a recession look like?

Bush doesn't think that the U.S. economy is in a recession, we're just having a bad week.

For reals? I mean, I know it's a committee decision and they probably won't say we're in a recession until after we're recovering - at least, that's what the post says - but man, could this guy fess up about ANYTHING? I'm sure it's a bit much to expect that he would, say, admit to having cooked the books on Iraq. But we have actual data for our sorry economic state.
