They got their wish

Remember the recent presidential election?

Sure you do. It was in all the papers.

Anyway, there was talk about how bad the economy was, and that putting a Democrat in office — even a raving socialist like Obama — would bring back the Clinton economy. Remember that?

Well, guess what? It’s happened.

The Dow closed this afternoon at 6725.02. It hasn’t closed that low since April 21st, 1997, when it closed at 6660.21.

That’s when Clinton was president.

At this rate, we’ll soon be a prosperous as we were during the Roosevelt administration, where the Dow peaked at 194.40, on March 10, 1937.

Ah, the good old days.

  1. Ah the good old days– when you only need to stand in line for three hours to get a cup of soup and a piece of bread, when no jobs could be found, when gangsters ruled the steets—Dems are in control again so those days cann’t be far away.

    [Maybe they’ll bring back Roosevelt’s campaign song, “Happy Days Are Here Again.” In fact, that probably would have been a better title to this post. Ah, hindsight. – B]

  2. When economic downturn leads to to holy socialism we will soon see the Obama interdenominational choir parading down Wall Street singing “Swing Low Sweet Chariot.” Yeah, that’s how much The One cares.

  3. Do you even have an education? Are you so dense that you think the fall in the stock market is because of the current administration? The reason it was so low for both Clinton and Obama is because of all the failures of the conservative administrations that preceded them. And you clearly do not know the definition of socialism-let me guess, you heard somebody say it last year and thought it sounded cool so you wanted to throw it in your little blog? Probably.

    Obama and his cabinet are doing everything in their power to clean up the mess left over and unfortunately this will take time. We are all in this together and if you were actually patriotic or cared about anybody but your own self, then you would stop this idiotic commentary.

  4. Aw, look at that. It thinks it’s people. It even tries to talk like one. But, alas, it’s merely a Simian, regurgitating the mindless screed that has been downloaded to its tiny, simian, obot brain.

    It’s adorable that it seems to think it has the intellectual capacity to form an argument. Thank goodness it has the Newspapers to form its opinions for it.

    *pats the retarded obot simian on the head and hands it a banana*

  5. It also thinks that and “education” makes you special.. hehe. I think when IT says education, it must mean indoctination and kool aid drinking. It also thinks (I use that term loosely) that this is about ourselves. It fails to understand the concept of putting our country before our selfish needs.

  6. Dear “You’re an Idiot”

    I guess you missed the part about Jimmy Carter signing the Community Reinvestment Act in 1977, and Bill Clinton strengthening it in 1999 by signing the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, also known as the “Financial Services Modernization Act.” Please let me also introduce you to Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. George Bush made many attempts to head off this crises but was defeated by partisan politics.

    Do you think the cap and trade legislation that Obama wants will help the economy? You know, the one that Obama promised when he spoke to the SF Chronicle last year where he said that his policy would cause the cost of electricity to “skyrocket”. Yup, that should help an economy in trouble all right. No one in the U.S. will be untouched by that one.

    You really should stay off the Kool-Aid.

  7. Apparently, the simian has never read marx, nor is at all aware of the communist manifesto. That one subscribes to it almost in its entirety, and has plagurized more than one of its contents. That one was “educated” at supposedly good schools, by the like of aulinski and wright. The *forbidden* is only in power due to media collusion, and ignorance on the part of the sheep on the left.
    So simian idiot boy, maybe convince your communist teachers and parents to actually teach you some history, then come back and smack talk, you won’t be able to.

    To anger a conservative, lie to them
    To anger a commie, tell them the truth.

  8. It’s good having trolls again. They all seemed to have dried up after R__ P___ packed it in.

    These are good ones, too. The obamorons’ desperation in the defense of the indefensible is almost as high as that of the ronulans.

  9. socialism (so sha liz um) n. A system in which people as a whole, and not individuals, control and own all property.

    It sounds harmless, doesn’t it?

    Personally, I always trust groups of strangers with no personal stake in my health, welfare or future more than I trust myself, doesn’t everyone?
