HOOPER PROJECT: Congrats to Whittington for rocking Monday night's innuagural Hooper. Indeed, Barack Obama will be our 44th president, he will be sworn in at noon on January 20th, and he will work with the newly-sworn-in 111th Congress.
Today, an appropos Hooper on the economy. Two points to any Comper who can tell me differences between the following things: the national debt, the federal deficit, and the trade deficit? Good luck.
