For the last four years of the Bush administration if you asked most folks what they thought about the economy they would have been negative.....but they would follow that with "I, my friends and family are doing pretty well". That is because of the constant negative drum beat of the government media since they are mostly Democrats. Today you might get a more optimistic response about the overall economy because the government media is AWOL but followed with, "But I, my friends and family are really struggling". Objectively speaking there have been some areas of improvement but overall, and especially if you talk to small businesses, it is pretty dismal out there and this is all before the tax hikes kick in next year.

So using your analogy, when you look at all those esoteric sources the weather is looking good but when you look outside all you see are storm clouds........
