how many points has the stock market dropped since Obama took office?

I wonder this too.

Every time he opens his mouth it tumbles another 300 points. With Geithner, its even higher.

Change!

So every time he opens his mouth it goes down 300 points, and Geithner causes an even larger drop. Considering the total decline has been about 700 points, are you saying Obama and Geithner have each spoken only once?

So what happened at the end of September when the DJIA dropped nearly 800 points in a single day? Did Obama yawn? Is it when Bush opens his mouth the market drops 800 points? You'll have to explain this one to me dmcwinnar.

We all have to remember that the neocons on this board are like the last of the dinosaurs. I mean look at the repub party. A black chief and a indian southern gov as the top gop guy for 2012? None of these neocons like this and they just dribble diarrhea from the mouth wondering when the second coming will happen and end all of this "suffering". The righty opinions shown here are so inconsequential that its just not even worth responding to the merits of the posts.

September is when Obama starting pulling ahead in the election polls. It's like a heartbeat, slow, steady, modest gains and then a crash when the messiah does his thing.

Nov. 5, 2008 (Wednesday after Election Day): -486 (5.0%)
Jan. 9, 2009 (one day after Obama speaks at George Mason University on ?need? for $800 billion stimulus package): -143 (1.6%)
Jan. 20, 2009 (Inauguration Day): -332 (4.0%)
Feb. 10, 2009 (one day after Obama declares that without a stimulus, ?an economy that is already in crisis will be faced with a catastrophe?): -382 (4.6%)
Feb. 17, 2009 (market opens for the first time after Congress passes $787 billion stimulus on Feb. 13; Obama signs bill into law, declaring, ?The stimulus lets Americans claim destiny.?): -298 (3.8%)
Feb. 19, 2009 (one day after Obama announces potential mortgage relief plan): -90 (1.2%)
Feb. 25, 2009 (one day after Obama?s first speech to the full Congress): -80 (1.1%)

I'll get the pitchforks, you grab the torches?

If horrible sarcasm is all that the Obama crowd is going to be able to muster for the next 4, these forums are going to get rather stale.


Edit: We also have deflecting to a previous administration:

The most ironic thing about this economic downturn is that it hurts the "not so well off" the most -- and those tend to be liberal. Actually, there are even a few libs on this board who are unemployed or laid off; and are having a hard time finding a position.

Even with all of this.. the libs keep on screaming: "buttt butt Bush".... IMHO, this is stupid. Oh well, as it gets worst, these people will be even more affected. But, how much more harsher does it need to get b4 these libs stop drinking the Obama juice? Never... or does it end when these "Bush disgrunted" libs get runs over by the bus on their way to college or on their way to their $10 and hr retail job? Or does this end when they take that last spoon of ramen noddle or oatmeal for dinner and say..."you know what, its never been this bad before? Could it be Obama"... Nah.. not going to happen Looks like the more likely thing is the "bus" scenario.

Whatever. This board is fun because of all the libs.. keep on chugging my friend. And no matter what happens, never lose that hatred for Bush They can take away your job, they can take away your home.. but they can never take away that "misplaced" hatred.. hahahhaahaha

You stupid fucks... this has been falling for a year now and still isn't close to how bad it will get -- but blame obama .. lol.. go ahead

DJIA industrial average Jan 1, 2008: 13,043.96

DJIA industrial average on your "supposed" date of the start of the Obama admin (was he president at this time???? not sure): 9,139.27

He's got a long way to go.

Wow you're an idiot

 

[compuwiz1]

The groundwork for the stock market to drop was laid way before Obama took office. Some of you jokers around here just need a coat hook to hang blame on.

 

[alchemize]

This is unpossible. I know of a thread where we've been promised through deep statistical analysis better market returns when the president is (D)






(for the record, Obama has almost nothing to do with the current stock market downturn)

you are too kind... some of them need a retroactive coat hanger .. sadly .. many of them probably have good jobs and if even one child it is too many because they teach them the same nonsense they display here

only dumb idiots such as you would blame long term economical catastrophy on a 35 days old president. you have problem with long term memory that you cannot remember anything older than 35 days?

You can't honestly be this stupid.

The crash in the markets that was credited with putting Obama in the lead, and now Obama being put into the lead is the reason for the crash according to you. That's circular reasoning.

Revisionist history. He took the lead when his media started attacking Palin on his behalf. Of course, once he officially won everyone was waiting for him to work his magic, and Geithner too, since Timmy was too big to fail. Of course, they turned out to be duds and have continued to be for some time.

keep on chugging along my friend...while even more of your comrades are getting hurt.. Yea, you have investors getting hurt too (a la Bernie Madoff).. but don't expect them to be as hurt as much as those that live pay to pay check on their 10$ an hr jobs (which may or not may not be there tomorrow)..

Vive la revolution -- the "change" revolution. Yes, everyone else is dumb.. only you are the smart one... oh, watch out for the bus... hhaahahahha.... losers!!

Obama is the one who just passed the largest s*it bill in history. He shares the blame now.

Did you sense any irony when you typed 'revisionist history'? Just wondering. You are truly worthless.

That "s*it bill" literally saved public education in FL amongst many other things. Trust me. I have access to the numbers that hardly anyone else has access too. We were completely screwed if it wasn't for that bill.

Ah, sorry. I didnt realize you had super secret squirrel numbers.


And believe me, if we keep spending money we dont have, public education is going to be in even more trouble.

China wont buy our bonds forever, no matter how hard Hillary begs.

Agreed and when it turns around the economy I can wait to see all those people who voted no go down in flames.
