Dow is SOARING!

How come the peeps on the right are not celebrating this aspect of our country's economic recovery?

Because it is happening on a Democrat's watch.

JD I like you, but the DOW has nothing to do with the president. BTW, the economy is about to fall because Obama has put us from 6 trillion dollars in debt to almost 17 trillion. One president did that and guess what? It was on Obama's watch. So do not pretend that our current success with the DOW is because of Obama.

My point follows.

If something good is happening, it has nothing to do with President Obama and his policies.

If something bad happens, it has everything to do with President Obama and his policies.

There is political hypocrisy in that line of thinking.

The Dow is up, unemployment is down, gas prices are way, way down, our economy is on very stable footing but none of these positive things can be possibly linked to the success of President Obama.

I bet you cant even explain without googling how this happened. Most of that is interest on the debt before he got in office. The deficit has fallen since he took office. I bet if the DOW was in pooper you would be blaming Barack.

My point exactly.

Typical liberal. You are wrong since you apparently didn't even read my post. I would think you like to read into everything making this statement which is pretty idiotic. The DOW has nothing to do with the president, nor has it ever (whether he was a democrat or a republican). Next time take the time to actually read what I am saying instead of making stupid remarks.

Re: Dow is SOARING!

The current economy is a house of cards.
The Fed is keeping the money supply open and easy for those with money to get and make more money.
As well as several Federal Loan/Grant Programs.
I do not think we go bust, but the future is ominous.
Both parties are leading us the same way.

Re: Dow is SOARING!

Lol. jd made a good point. When good happens under a republican president it's the presidents doing. When bad happens its just that stuff happens. When good happens under a democrat it's because stuff happens and when bad does it's because the democrat did it
