"It's not time for PROFITS"? The most stupid remarks ever utter by a President in American History? This LOSER of a President Obama will have NO job creation or growth while he is in Office? I would defeat every policy and budget Barack Obama proposes!

Let's see...the object of business is to make a profit, but you expect us to believe businesses were so worried about Obama winning the election, they purposely sacrificed profits ? That is about the DUMBEST thing I've ever heard.

It's still early, wait for a few more of them to come out of their Pabst Blue Ribbon induced comas and I am sure something sillier will be voiced.

The DOW long ago stopped indicating the strenghth of the American economy and more served as an index for worthless derivatives and credit-default-swaps crafted by Republican Alan Greenspan.

Why anyone would trusted the stock market to build wealth is completey stupid.

The DOW long ago stopped indicating the strenghth of the American economy and more served as an index for worthless derivatives and credit-default-swaps crafted by Republican Alan Greenspan.

We've de-industrialized our economy a long time ago, thanks to Wall Street Republicans like Nixon, Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, it's only now that we will see the effects of that Republican destruction to our economy.

Wall Street Republicans didn't want to work anymore and instead opted for Ponzi garbage like Alan Greenspan's worthless derivatives and credit-default-swaps aftet the stock market crash of 1987 under that fascists Ronald Reagan.

I just wish all the Friedmanites and Reaganites would dissappear and let us rebuild the American economy from scratch without Republicans Alan Greenspan and Milton Friedman.

The market has basically been detached from the economic realities of main street for most of this decade. You whiners on the right shouldn't be surprised when a market built on the lies of Madoff, AIG and Bear Stearns finally collapses in upon itself.

OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE concludes that President Obama was correct in his assertion that if we do nothing the economy will collapse. GDP in the fourth quarter qwas WORST than the third quarter and G.W. Bush was president then...

The free market has ruled that citibank, AIG, and Bank of America should go out of business just as Lehman Brothers, Meriill Lynch, and others have. Unfortunately, some invesotrs tend to draw lines in the sand.

I keep trying to tell you guys that the DOW has to go back to 500pts when in 1971 Republican Richard Nixon unilaterily pulled out of the Bretton Woods of fixed exchange rates.
