[quote=wjtwet;20386140]Today gain is because of Obama.
You must remember , bad things happen its Bush or the tea party, good things happen its Obama. Im sitting here in texas where it is over 102 and has not rained for 2 months it is Bushes fault. When it cools off and finally rains its Obamas credit. Nothing bad is Obamas fault just ask Obama[/quo

Yes. Obamma all things good. All things bad=Bush and Tea Party. Except for things like jobs.

Actually, Roy, if you read the text of the statement released by S&P after the downgrade, one of the points that was reiterated was the GOP's refusal to eliminate the Bush "tax cuts", which were never cuts to start with because they were paid for with borrowed money. The Bush "vote-buying scheme" is what they should have been called.

I didn't write the release, but the blame for the downgrade (and subsequent market drop) can be laid squarely at the feet of republicans.

Own it.

No no you dont get it clearly those gains were from Obama and the Federal Reserve talking.
Then reality set in and people again looked at their saving accounts and investiments and went what in the hell is Obama and the FED doing! "S&IT"
Then it dropped again.


See the markets are responsing to the fake numbers just like the fake money the FED prints so you live in make believe world that any of it

Upon what do you base that? Since I said NOTHING even remotely liberally leaning there, the only logical conclusion would be that you assume anyone critical of any aspect of Christianity is a liberal. If that's the case, how do you explain all of the Ayn Rand conservatives?

Can you show me something from S&P that says that passage of C, C, & B would have resulted in the downgrade? I sure would appreciate it if you could.

Typical of a rightie, make statements stating things I have never said. I never said anything along the lines of what you said in the first set of dribble you posted above, if you would like to attempt to provided some proof of such I would be happy to apologize, I will be waiting
Lots of luck finding it
Thanks, you provide with the same sort of entertainment for me, so I guess we brighten eachothers day
