Snow, White House Tout Economic Good Times

Top Bush administration officials on Friday sought to hammer home the message that the country is enjoying good times during a day-long round of radio interviews touting the economy’s steady growth.

“By virtue of every index of economic performance, we’re going the right way,” Treasury Secretary John Snow told a Vermont talk radio show in one of a series of interviews he and about 20 other officials held in Treasury’s ornate Cash Room.

After citing increases in job creation, stronger business investment and growth in gross domestic production, or national output, Snow added: “All of this is coming against a background of inflation being well in check. … We don’t see inflation becoming a problem.”
