Bush is a genius stepping on the Economy Accelerator right before the midterm election.

It's October... Surprise!!!

If it doesn't get reported by the MSM, the sheeple will never know about it.

Polls give Bush's handling of the economy low marks because the MSM tells them the economy is bad.

Thanks for the correction, but it was Bloomberg News that wrote "closed a top 12'000." Sorry.

This quote is from the article on money.cnn.com:

"Warren West, president of Greentree Brokerage Services, said a combination of factors - including solid corporate profits, the possibility of flat or declining interest rates and a cooling of commodity prices - have all helped fuel the record-setting run on Wall Street. Wednesday the Dow closed at a record high for the eighth time in the past 11 sessions.

"The economy continues to weaken," West said."

No reason given for his rationale, you notice. Housing starts up, unemployment down, jobless rate down, oil price down, consumer confidence high, deficit in decline (did I miss anything ?) but somehow the economy is weak.

Not only is it a record close for the DJIA just before an election, it occurred on the exact anniversary date of Black Monday, the great stock market decline of October 19, 1987 when the DJIA lost 22.6% of its value.

The timing is highly suspicious. This is irrefutable proof that Karl Rove is controlling the U.S. financial markets to benefit Republicans.

Wow, I can think like a Democrat if I hit my head hard enough against my desk!

Of course, after yesterday's close the local news radio station had a long piece about how it really doesn't mean anything....No mention of how the last high was built on an unsustainable foundation, etc.
