But with the stock market doing so well now, they can’t give any credit to Bush’s tax and economic policies.

Perhaps the surge in the stock market isn't all due to the tax and economic policies of Bush, but rather the profits of war related industries fueled by the untold billions (borrowed money) the government is feeding into the economy each month?

The military costs money in peace time too.

Don’t rain on their parade :-) Besides where else can the poor foreign slobs stuck with trillions of depreciating dollars find a return? It’s better to own the companies than the soon to be worthless paper dollar. Not to mention the all the 401Ks that have nowhere else to put our money month after month and the Federal Reserves “plunge protection” team going into action when needed. I seriously doubt this rise was fueld by the retail investor. I seriously doubt that at all.
