Some buyers will show up tomorrow. If obama speaks or QE3 is mentioned it will go in the tank again.

People can’t put stock in our markets when the credit rating agencies don’t put stock in our president.

And the piece of sh*t Obamanation wants to raise our taxes now, after our retirements are wiped out.

Someone needs to tell him any time he feels the need to fire up the teleprompters, to play 18 holes of golf instead. However you want to say it, anything he touches turns to sh!t.

What I find most delightful about this dismal day's events is that the market sold off an additional 400 points,
after the President made his 1:00 p.m. speech to the nation, which he kept us waiting for until 2:00 p.m....
Looked like some kind of a "no confidence" vote to me....

especially when Limbaugh was saying that the Fed was placing buy orders to try and prop him up. Too little too late, apparently.

Another sad part is that somewhere Soros is making millions! Sickening.

This Stock Market is way overvalued, like the Housing Market.
It needs a large correction, so this is healthy.

We didnt need a rating agency to tell us we need a balanced, long-term approach to deficit reduction, he said. My hope is that Fridays news will give us a renewed sense of urgency.
Paul Ryan had a balanced, long-term approach to deficit reduction, and the president and his fellow socialists treated him like he was an idiot.
