Economists laugh at Bush

News story:

President Fidel Castro said the U.S. economy hangs by a thread while Cuba -- after four decades under a U.S. economic blockade -- continues to offer free health care and boasts an infant mortality rate lower than its northern neighbor. In a 4 1/2-hour speech to economists, Castro also took shots at President Bush, saying he "couldn't debate a Cuban ninth-grader." He recited for a half-hour from a published compilation of Bush malapropisms, bent over with laughter as the audience roared.

Bush could debate a ninth-grader. He just couldn't win.
