By the same token, what would we say about dear comrades Henwood, 
Panitch, Gindin? Hey, I wouldn't say they're discredited. Just sanguine

Doug Henwood, July 10, 
http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com/Radio.html#081004: "The economic 
news remains pretty much the same as the last few weeks: the U.S.

for weeks, maybe months to come."
