Well well - it was The magic of Obama that had brought the market back above 10K - who is responsible for it dropping back down ?


--As if I didn't know who the Democrats will blame..  ::)

DUmmy. (not really) Everybody know that the Government creates jobs. obama said so.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

The Zimbabwe stock market was doing great as the country fell into cave man status

A local financial analyst (on radio) stated today that the market decline is the result of two events:

First, the Labor Dept. reported that 8,000 additional new applications for unemployment were filed this week, and.......

Second, Tomorrow is the deadline when the White House has to report that 800,000 more jobs were  lost for last year than they have been claiming......the time limit for "cooking the books" for last year has expired...the likely effect on the national unemployment figure will be to revise it upward from 10% to nearly 12&.....anyone wanna give me odds that this tidbit will come out at six PM tomorrow night, just in time to get lost in the weekend news gap.......

He also reported that the over 5% GDP growth reported for the last quarter  (from a leak at the Federal Reserve) will be adjusted downward by more than 50%.......how much more has not been determined.

The report that I heard was "new applications for unemployment".....but my hearing ain't all that great, however, 480k for a week, seems way high......dunno.

480K was the number reported for this week.
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.
