[jenmito]

It fell about 427 points today to 7997! Watch some RWers blame Obama for this like some already are!

1. Now see.....this is the fucked up shit that we need to be talking about......

how to dig ourselves out of this hole.

[jenmito]

4. I agree...

which is why I started this thread. :) I can't wait 'til the competent people start running this country!

[AlCzervik]

2. um "Thank God it passed!"?

[sabra]

3. I see the Obama Recession is in full affect

that's what Hannity, Dick Morris, Limbaugh, and Hugh Hewitt tell me every day

:sarcasm: of course

[jenmito]

5. Yup-the recession is the NEXT president's fault, 9/11 was the LAST president's fault...

and nothing is Bush's fault.

6. The Wonder Years, Bush Style

[Barack_America]

8. Woo hoo! Let GM, Ford and Chrysler go bankrupt and we'll see it go to ZERO!

This should be fun!

:sarcasm:

[LynnTheDem]

9. 5 1/2 years ago, it was Bill Clinton's fault.

Now it's Barack Obama's fault.

[Deja Q]

10. Thinking of the future indeed... more like massaging schizophrenics' gonads

:crazy:

[depakid]

11. When you see data like 1% deflation and record low housing starts

and put them in context, it's impressive that the indices haven't dropped even lower- none of which has anything to do with Obama, except that the inference might be made that had McCain and the incompetent Republicans retained power- one could easily imagine a much worse scenario for the markets.
