Any economic policy change takes a long time to take place (I can't remember the exact number, but I believe it is 6 months). To say the economy is tanking right now due to what Obama's done in office in less than two months would be ludicrous.

It doesn't take wall street 6 months to react to Geithner's lack of planning, it only takes a few minutes, that much I know

I like how you are color blind.
It shows bush's term in green, falling well before Obama gets it (in red) and then it continues to fall

It was in red before Obama was in office //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Am I missing something? Where on the chart is the date? How do you know when the election was?

Did you read the post I was replying to? I was commenting on him saying that Bush's term was in green and Obamas was in red. And my point was the economy went down the crapper while Bush was in office so really the whole chart should be in the red zone.

This was mainly due to Clintons shitty job in office. He's the top reason for 9-11, the housing crisis, etc.

Whether his fault or not, when Bush was in office the economy wasnt doing well. Then when Obama began his term, the economy has gotten worse then any time when Bush was president, Obama's fault or not.

Clinton, Barney Frank, and Chris Dodd are the people who pushed the legislation which let the whole housing market collapse.

I didn't know there was a such thing as an amateur retard //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Its because Bill Clinton is a coke addict who beats his wife and funds terrorists. Barney Frank molests little boys and has openly admitted to being a Satanist, even taking part in ritualistic animal torture/sacrifice.

How is that?

Seriously? Clinton was an idiot.

It's the investors fault. The gov't can fix or fux up the enonomy. The investors did it all by themselves. Bad investments, bad money managers and zero acountabiltity or transparency how thier money was being handled. They deserved to lose money.

The market is way too big for the gov't fix or fuk it up by manipulating 2-3 trillion $$$. The gov'ts job should be to set min fair rules, GTFO of the way and criminally punish those who break the rules. That's it.

The market will correct itself regardless of the gov't actions.

Idiot or not saying he was the cause of the banking/housing crash is a ridiculous statement.
