I wouldn't be singing praises of the enlightened one walking on water anytime the market goes up, cos you certainly don't hold him to it when it goes down. I don't get this. If something good happens you credit it to him, but if something bad happens (on this present day) you blame it on the previous admin or any pub who happens to be convenient. Yet at the same time when GW was in office if anything good happened you attributed it to the previous admin, but if something bad happened it was Bush's fault. I'm not getting it. How can you do that without any reasoning behind it. Your creating a fictitious win/win situation for yourselves. Take credit when good happens (even though he does nothing to create any good), and blame the previous when something bad happens. If he has not been in office long enough to accept the blame for the bad, then he sure has not been in office long enough to take credit for the good. Then on top of that he signs these bills (him and his signature) that triples our deficit, but you say it's Bush's fault???????

So lets see...Dow closed up yesterday and you were all singing praises to the enlightened one that because of him the stock market went up. Now today it closed down close to 150 points. Therefore you need to place the blame on him also.

Also, he may have inherited 1.3 trillion dollar deficit but he has now tripled that - by his own writing. Bush left the office a long time ago and last I knew had not been back to the white house to sign any spending bill's but guess who has. The enlightened one has tripled the deficit and that is no fault but the current administration.

Another BTW - I did say my DH works in stocks/trading, but I did not say he goes into an office or does trading for other people. He doesn't do anything that would be manipulating any stocks, shouldn't be so quick to assume.
