WATCH: Fox News Admits The Economy Is ‘Much Better Than It Was’ Under Bush (VIDEO)

Cavuto on Business actors couldn’t get their propaganda straight during Saturday’s episode. Rumor has it their script-writer was busy inventing next week’s scandal, leaving Jim Cavuto, Ben Stein and a couple of extras to fend for themselves.

Stein chuckled a lot and reminded everyone that in 1968 the election was won because of civil unrest over Vietnam, not the economy. He had nothing else of use to add, as usual.

The other actors were discussing Hillary Clinton’s campaign, and before our very eyes they began saying things like:

All Hillary Clinton has to say is that the economy now compared to eight years is way better. Unemployment IS way down, the market IS way up.

What? No spin about 92 million people not in the labor market? Nothing about the impending doom of an inflated market exploding all over the middle class? Nope. Just the simple fact that the economy is much better now than it was eight years ago under George W. Bush.

It’s certainly something to behold. They admit that Bernie Sanders, who they call a “kook,” will drive Hillary further left, as will the presence of Elizabeth Warren, who one actor described as “formidable” even though she’s not running.

People in hell are lining up for ice water as we speak.

Watch Fox News actors admit the economy is much better than it was under Bush.

    I love it when some conservative claims that the “real” unemployment numbers is that 93 Million people are actually out of work. Let’s see now… the population of the U.S. is approximately 330 Million. That’s 93 / 330 = 28% of the population is unemployed (according to the conservatives). During the Great Depression, unemployment was only 25% so they’re saying that the current unemployment is higher than what it was during the Great Depression. Interesting.

      Of course they cherry pick and forget to mention that the majority of those Non working people are the aging retired baby boomers, collage students and of course non working age children..

  • Jim Trebowski

    Serious question: How is Bernie Sanders a “kook”?

    • Ken Duerksen

      He doesn’t betray his constituents for wads of cash and cushy revolving-door “consultantships”.

    • Tim Arvizu

      Take their comments with a grain of salt. To these right wing talking heads, every person to the left of Attila The Hun is a kook.

    • Old Top Kick

      He’s not running around with his hair on fire screaming, “There’s a ni99er in the White Man’s House who isn’t a servant.” He therefore qualifies as insane by the Reich Wing standards of the day.

    • John Kessler

      He’s a politician who tells the truth and refuses to take money from the oligarchs. He is a defender of the working class and the poor, not the banksters. He refuses to run negative ads.

      That about as kooky as you can get in modern American politics.

      What America needs is more kooks and fewer pols approved by Fox News and the mainstream corporate media.

    • Signal Pupett

      Bernie makes their heads explode.

      Actually, their heads are exploding at every turn. Send in the clowns. Don’t bother, they’re here.

    • jimfay

      ESPECIALLY when you compare him to the recent roster of Republican wanna be candidates who have fallen to the sidelines ! He’s raising money and he’s raising questions. That entire right-wing kook list raised nothing but eyebrows.

    • David Hewitt

      Because he talks funny and has funny hair. And, unfortunately, no ‘kooky’ person has ever been elected to President of the United States. But blessed are the kooks, for they shall inherit the Earth!

  • DXW

    They’re terrified of Sanders. Hillary is a democrat (barely), and definitely a member of their club. Sanders actually wants to fix things. No wonder they’re scared.

  • Paul Alvarez

    Democrats sub prime mortgage fiasco caused our economy to tank.

    America is resilient, and despite that flawed policy and our current spending like drunken sailors at port, we, the working class and opportunity makers, are capable of overcoming.

    So, congratulations on proving your how great this nation is, and welcome to Level 2, Obamacare.

    We
    were once sold a lie, that emergency room visits by uninsured people
    cost us too much. If this was truly the case, our health costs would
    have risen when that method of treatment was being practiced.

    Now that Obamacare is in effect, we, the working class are paying more, and more, and more. It has failed.

    If we beat this level also, they will introduce Level 3, Amnesty and then after that, Level 4, Cap and Trade.

    They will not stop until America fails.

      Get a grip man!

    • bigjay69

      Paul the voices in your head are not telling you facts.The ACA has slowed the rate of medical inflation,

    • John S

      Paul: Take your meds…

    • Old Top Kick

      Nice job parroting the Faux Spews talking points. Too bad that they are devoid of any factual basis. You are entitled to your own opinion of course, but not your own facts.

      My premiums are down by 50% since the ACA became law. My total healthcare costs are down by 25%.

      The only states seeing major cost increases are the red states that rejected the Medicaid expansion. Several rural hospitals have had to shut their doors due to a surge in uninsured ER patients.

      Who granted amnesty to the largest number of illegals? St Ronald of Reaganscat of course. That was real amnestey, by the way, not a temporary deferral as is currently the case.

      Cap and Trade? Ahh, yes, that evil Bush plan to help rein in carrbon pollution. Had Bush proposed it 2 years earlier it would have been law well before he left office. But when his Black Democrat successor decides that it’s a good idea and tries to run with it, suddenly it’s evil personifie? Gotcha!

    • wingr47

      Cruz’s wife took a leave of absence from Her job and lost insurance, sooooooo, Teddy boy RAN to sign up for the ACA and at least admitted eh saves 20% over wife’s premiums. Put ALL Congress members on ACA and make Them pay for it. Congress is a part time job and according to labor laws temps get no paid insurance.

  • MAXINE DELICATA

    I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE STILL SOME IGNORANT PEOPLE THAT BELIEVES FOX NEWS.

  • llovejim

    i agree. it is mind blowing to hear any fox talking head admit just how blatantly obvious how much economic recovery has been made from the second worst recession in our history. bernie sanders seems like a great guy but he has as much chance of winning a national election as rick santorum. you have to run somewhere near the center to have a chance. that is why the GOP will never win the white house again for decades, at least. they sold out their moderate soul to embrace the teabaggers they needed to take back the house in 2010….and now the teabaggers are pretty much driving the bus.

  • Jamie Quinones

    Bernie Sanders is the kook!?!

  • Ed Brant

    the only reasion i see this recovery might seem to be anemic is the intransigence of the GOP to allow any infrastructure plan {job growth} or put up anything but tax cuts and reduced social programs….
