Madam Foxx: 'Quit Whining, You Poor Slobs!'

On the radio in Wilkes County, NC-10 Congresswoman Virginia Foxx channels Little Mary Sunshine about the U.S. economy and scolds El Presidente mildly for "over-reacting" to the foreclosure/bankruptcy crisis. "We're just doin' great," saith the multi-millionaire Madam. And by the way, there's apparently a ginormous distinction to be made between applications for bankruptcy and actual bankruptcies. Sort of like the distinction between diagnoses of cancer and actual cancer deaths. Which is evidently meant to reassure us.
