Economists have been saying for 2 years that a severe crash and recession were I imminent because of the financial house of cards that had been built. Obama was right in what he said.
I just don't understand how you can seriously shift the blame for economic disaster to a CANDIDATE while excluding an 8year presidency. Doesn't any part of that sound just a little bit silly? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Madigan Sent: Thursday, 27 November 2008 9:00 AM To: ProFox Email List Subject: RE: [OT] How to determine if a market has hit THE bottom. For two years Obama's campaign has been saying over and over again that the economy was the worst since the Great Depression. OF course that was a lie. 6% unemployment and possitive growth does not make a depression. So of course people bailed when the market started to crash. After all, it was the Great Depression, right? ************************************************* Barack Obama is not My President http://www.cafepress.com/rightwingmike --- On Wed, 11/26/08, Geoff Flight <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Geoff Flight <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: [OT] How to determine if a market has hit THE bottom. > To: "'ProFox Email List'" <profox@leafe.com> > Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2008, 5:17 PM > The truly odd thing about markets is that they are drive as > much my > psychology as about fundamentals.
