All time HIGH in the market today boys!

[GeoFisher]

The market closed at 9675 on Nov. 4, 2008, the day President Obama was elected. How do you get that his election caused a 7000 point slide? The markets started their drop before he was ever elected. They are now back to where they were before 2007. Markets go up, markets go down.

In October.....1 month before Obama was elected, the market closed at 11,500.

SPIN THAT.

AND I'm done trying to explain very simple concepts to people who quite frankly are INCAPABLE of understanding them.

and here is a pretty picture to EXPLAIN.....Look at 1980 to 2000 and then 2000 to 2012.......if you think we're growing this economy you're a **** FOOL.......AND for those who look at Reagan as evil, lets not forget that 1980 to 2000 included quite a few REAGAN years......

... during which he pegged the Capital Gains tax rate at the same rate as the highest personal income tax rate - 28%.

And yet you STILL argue that increasing it will bog down the economy.

You proved my point. One month before the election no one knew Obama was going to be elected, yet the market dropped almost 2000 points in that time. If you are saying it dropped 7000 points from that figure, you would still be incorrect because the market never went down to 4500. I don't understand you and I don't appreciate being called a **** FOOL because I disagree with you! What happened to the free exchange of ideas?

The smart money was on Obama from the beginning and never wavered.

No one knew..............I knew.....and most everyone else knew. McCain had been sliding since August.

FOOLS wanting something for nothing KNEW.......the Hope and Change crowd Knew. College Kids KNEW.

YOU must be the only one who didn't know.

I didn't call you a **** FOOL because you disagree with me......I called you a **** FOOL because you think we're actually growing or better off or something else......and that my friend is **** FOOLISH.

Done with it.

So you did call me a **** FOOL! I was trying to point out that the markets didn't go down 7000 points only because of President Obama. I am going to blame Bush for part of it (Oh no). Clinton, Bush 1, and even Reagan can take part of the blame.

I don't know why I ever get on here and read this anymore. Peter, you're loosing clicks because of folks like this.
