It is Bush's fault!
Soup lines everywhere!
Imagine if Bush was a Conservative how the Markets would be doing?
Pray for W and Our Troops
We're doomed!
But it doesn't matter, because the middle class is bummed out at how much more money Bill Gates has than they do.
The Dow is up because John F'n Kerry announced he was not running for President.
Lola Pelosi will turn this economy around!
Pray for W and Our Troops
It's a quagmire!
Worst economy since Hoover.

Tax the Rich.

Sell, sell, sell...
Democrats can not wait to reap the benefits of a successful economy , brought about by a Republican President..AGAIN.. I might add.
OH GOD PLEEEEASE HELP US FROM THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS THAT THE EVIL BUSH HAS PLACED US IN!! ~sarc
I agree. you sell when everyone is raving about the blue skies.
I was just joking. I think it's got a long way to go.
OTOH, your rule is a good maxim.
Well the best maxim is follow money supply. If we retreat from the ME our currency's going south. The price people will expect on money loaned to us is going up. And that's where the economy being tanked intentionally by the Fed comes in.

He had to sell his lakeside bungalow to cover his losses. BTW, he thinks Clinton and Rubin lorded over the greatest economy...ever. And oil companies make obscene profits and gouge the American driver.
Need I say he's a liberal? I always tell him not to go into day trading.
