Haha.. wait, let me stop laughing so I can reply to you...

Oooh hold.. This one will take a minute...

Ok, I'll try to respond..
Let me get this straight, first you guys claimed Beck was trying to corner the gold market, by advertising for Gold Line, now you are now claiming Beck has more power than the President and can affect the stock market. Oooh the humor of your claims never stop...

At least, they're not blaming Bush...for the moment. That's a nice break.

I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out how a rally in DC, that no one attended, (per the liberals here), had such an impact on the stock market.

psssst the whackjobs took over this country awhile ago. Thanks to the people who supported Obama or McCain our downfall was guaranteed. Business as usual.

The GDP is in positive territory only because of government spending.
Take away all the programs, incentives, credits and outright bailouts and we've probably been negative for a few quarters now.

Government spending is NOT going to make this recovery happen. And no one will say what we are recovering to ? More credit bubbles ?

The underlying debt has not been purged..just covered up with funny money printed up by Uncle Ben.

We had a huge speculative bubble in mortgage securities crash and are funding two useless wars on credit and some consider slow growth to be a problem? Any growth at all is a success!

If this gets worse maybe we should set up a new currency based on, say, fissionable materials for power plants. Except then people would set up breeder reactors and start the inflation all over again. Just kidding, I think.
