Another Recession Is ‘One Small Shock Away’: Rosenberg

The US economy is teetering on the brink of a second recession—not a double-dip—even though the stock market remains strong, economist David Rosenberg told CNBC.

With unemployment high, housing slumping and Washington locked in a heated debt debate, the Gluskin Sheff strategist warned that it won’t take much to trigger another downturn.

“Everything is telling you how soft the underbelly of the economy really is,” Rosenberg said. “We’re just one small shock away from the economy going back into recession.”

What counts as a shock,
During the reign of Barack?
(Whose Vice President Joeber
Is a human pet rock)
With no sense of the future,
He’s taken us into hock,
Gives a rip about jobs,
Foreclosed homes by the block.
(And, oh by the way-
Iran’s in Iraq.)
Seniors first lost their stock,
And are now sweating their “Doc”.
(While Pelosi and Harry
marched on blithely at mach.)
The new “Or Gramma gets it!”
Must make their knees knock…
Filling your tank makes
you yearn for a Glock,
When you know any drilling
is under a lock,
And Obama SPR spew
is mealy mouthed crock.
There’s TOO MUCH to choose from,
So much Obama to mock.
What a shame it’s all tied
To a big DoomsDay Clock.

Yeah. Can’t even begin to guess what’d tip us over the edge.

   Or rather, “drinking like an amphibian”

   Pet rocks have more native intelligence than Joe Biden could ever hope to have.
