I think the guy just likes picking on whoever is currently the president simply because HE’S not the president.
Except that in this case, he’s picking on the guy who’s not going to be President for another two months. Pretty much on the “blame the nearest Democrat” theory.
Oxycontin does strange things to logic.
Obama had a bad morning, the market dropped over 300 early. That was his fault. Then it recovered and wound up 550 up. That was in spite of Obama and his recession. The up was due to Bush or Paulson or somebody. Obama is responsible for downs only.
Clearly the market is anticipating a Republican in 2012.
And if we classified hate speech in broadcasting as ‘terrorism’, publicly executed Rush, and tracked down all of his financial supporter ‘terror cells’ for Gitmo internment, this wouldn’t be an issue either.
Unless maybe you’d prefer a multi-party Democracy…? Its just that you seemed like a winner-take-all kinda guy politically. And you lost.
Uh, Count Blucher, my pal, my bubby? Do you perceive a rather large, nay, cacophonous WHOOSHING sound right about now? 
The economy has been spiralling downward for almost two years now. The collapse of the subprime mortgage market starting in early 2007 was the first major downdraft. It is highly likely that the National Bureau of Economic Research (the most respected org when it comes to calling recessioins) will determine that the recession started in winter or spring of this year.
In other words, our current problems were baked in the cake. Looking at day-to-day volatility on the Dow is almost beside the point. It has been at best a coincident indicator in this crisis. And things are going to get much worse – sorry folks.
And, it goes without saying, Rush is full of shit.
Yep, that’s Rush’s M.O. I used to listen just to hear the mental gymnastics he would go through to blame the latest Bush fiasco on Bill Clinton.
Great fun!
Your meek and timid ways afford the homeless unemployed an avenue of escape, sabotaging our glorious plans for economic supremacy. I’ll poison the soup kitchens, gas the sewers, and run a pitchfork through anyone caught under a bridge.
