And just think one poster here who constantly praises the market when things are up for a day and gives credit to Obama now can come on and lay the same blame on Obama.

The economy as of today is in the worst position it has ever been in since the great depression and all on Obama's watch and under his direction.

You're right. If only he had had taken the Bush surplus and used it ...oh wait... Or if only he hadn't driven the economy to his knees when Bush left a perfectly functionin...oh wait.

Wait, your post is retarded.

Check this out :

10 years to absorb the run up of insanity that brought our economy to destruction. The injection of cash into the economy is as fake as the injection that made the housing market into a bubble. Houses aren't really supposed to be worth as much as people want to believe. That's the part that hard to swallow.

To say Obama is responsible for all of this..oh, come on man, I know you're smarter than that. It's the same as blaming Bush for it all.

You're going to panic over 2.25% drop in stocks? You're wrapped just a little too tightly for this world.

My last listing went under contract in less than 4 days. As far as the DOW, not sure if you are aware of this but it represents international companies. Judging by the state of Japan, Libya etc it's not really a surprise.

Cone on now, really doesn't take a rocket scientist well for some maybe to figure out what is going on with this housing market, take a look around, really need the media to spell it out for us.

Housing crisis, has been taking a dive for some time now.

Read the post again.

Posters here who love Obama post how great he is when the DOW rises.
So, when it goes down it is only fitting to give him credit for its downward fall right?

I happened to do very well under Bush. Why didnt you?
