G7 urged to take joint action to avoid collapse of financial system

Quote
President George Bush appeared in the White House rose garden in an attempt to reassure American voters and investors.

"We are a prosperous nation with immense resources and a wide range of tools at our disposal," he said. "Fellow citizens, we can solve this crisis. And we will."

Oh, now we are "fellow citizens," are we, rather than "consumer units?"

Things must be really bad.
