Just a preview of coming attractions. I mean, if THIS is the biggest inauguration stock market dip, I’d hate to see what it looks like when 0bama actually DOES something! “You want a share of Microsoft? Sure, that’ll be one lint ball and 2 pieces of string”.
Ungrateful capialist pigs! Lord Obama will prevail. When he nationalizes (sic ALL) US industry, then everyone will have to clap, cheer, and perform national service while making mandatory massive investments in the New! Improved! markets. The stock market will be regulated, and will not be allowed to dip…plunge…..or react in any negative fashion. The Treasury will just print money and order the market to go up every day.
American blacks overwhelmingly vote liberal == socialist. It is the gimme gimme gimme philosophy. So indeed I am calling this Obama’s stock market. Socialism never has worked and never will work.
A better way to look at things is thus: Assume everything is just one form of capitalism or another. ( since it is true )
Capitalism with High ethical standards === Optimum Capitalism
Socialism = Optimum Capitalism + cronyism + theft + shrinkage + low ethics …. and eventually decays into Communism
The economy is getting cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey (this is actually a naval term from the age of sail).
I guess the jig is up. (origin lost to history 200 years ago, but probably a fishing term).
Frankly, in my experience it’s one of those terms that’s so outdated and rarely used (at least in my area), I’d never have noticed it.
In my experience, spook just means someone who’s a bit creepy to be around, and Al Capone used it to describe himself in that context, saying he was “just a spook” and not a criminal after he was arrested.
Heh.
I’m offended that backs of buses still exist in this day and time.

Does this mean that investers are being niggardly with their money?

This is GREAT! Who knew it could be this easy?
No, he’s just calling a spade a spade.
(And before someone goes high and to the right, in this instance the word “spade” refers to a type of
shovel!)
Counting down until Olbermoron names the stock market his worst person in the world…

Since we just inaugurated King Obama you can guess where we have descended to.
ummm Basil? You’re a conservative, so you’re racist even if you don’t say it.
Where have you been?

I just want to shake hands with the copywriter that pulled it off…..

The winner of a marathon is a racist.
Jig is also racist. 🙁
