I believe this 4th of July may be the best indicator of what we can expect for the remainder of the year. If there is any daylight, consumers will spend; especially on a holiday. However if they don't that means there is still a ton of uncertainty for the consumer, which means they will put their hands in their pockets once again.

Psychology is the best indicator of most things. If the consumer feels confident they will spend. If not they will save any way they can. There are still too many uncertainties. I should put a caveat out there. The most likely spenders will be those 30 years and younger, because they usually are the most optimistic. They don't have their own pain when it comes to history as most middle age consumers.

Have a great and safe 4th guys.

Day 1 was the best indicator of what a totally incompetent clueless nerd Obama is.

He planned to close Gitmo, but he forgot to figure out where to put the detainees. You'd think a Harvard professor would be smart enough to figure that out.

But he didn't. So he got spanked by his own party.

I knew it was a bad idea then, and I said so.

Maybe Obama better check all his other ideas with me before he goes public with them.

One more comment, anyone else notice "SUBMIT" instead of "POST" when adding comments to stories? Give me a brake.

I think it's a sign that the end is near.

Dogs and cats sleeping together.

The lamb sleeping with the viper in the lion's den.

Submit instead of post.

Break instead of brake.

Total anarchy.

May be the last 4th we have to celebrate. At the rate the country is failing and with the population apparently willing to let the country go down the flush, guess we deserve it.

It's happening on Obama's watch.

Obama is to blame.

81 days of summer left... 50% say the US will default on its debt
by the end of summer. The other 50% say if the government continues
borrowing, default is certain but when? Smart, be frugal. Keep
some money in the matress.

Didn't you hear?

Obama plans to confiscate all mattresses.

He wants us to sleep on straw mats like the Chinese do.

As the "Recession Puts Breaks on Holiday Travel," I hope it doesn't "brake" any records.

CbeeEs is just as bad as the rest. They prefer to hire
low life rather than the qualified. The American corporation
has the attitude of hiring the foreign worker that will work
12-14 hour days 7 days a week for peanuts - like they do in
China and India.
Americans should have the attitude toward other Americans of
thinking, "You don't have a job? Hell, I'll put you to work!"
Instead we sit meekly waiting for the next foreigner to take
our job. Soooo sad.
