I was always grateful that I was too young to remember the Carter years. Does every generation have to go through this?

What a game and what an advert for test cricket. Many congratulations to the indomitable West Indies from an admiring England fan. Allen Stanford — who’s he?

Didn’t it break 14,000 while Bush was president? Now look what’s happening.

Thank you, Zero; you really know how to not stimulate the economy.

Black Friday coming? The Dow cracked 7500 which is a psychological barrier for a lot of people.

Evil Kenyan-born Islamo-Marxist.

Business people or anyone with an IQ above 55 has ZERO confidence in this evil clown.

Carter had Iranians burning him in effigy.

Obama will have Americans doing it pretty soon.

GE is hovering just over $10/share.

CEO Immelt is financial advisor to Obama.

Go figure!
