nothing better watching Bush and the Dow in real time
Is this guy the most elitist snob ever? His answers are angry, bitter, ill informed and condescending all at the same time. How many times can he say "look stupid I always said X" even though I can't remember when he's said X. Man if he's always been for more drilling in the US, why did he just wave offshore drilling yesterday? I mean he's blaming congress for lack of oil exploration 8 years ago, but is first action on the issue was yesterday.

Anyways on Nov 7 2000 the Dow was 10952. Congratz on leading to a negative Dow since stealing the election. Double congratz for having zero clue to go live during the historic event.

1. I'm sure that while he was hold hands with the Saudi King, all he was
thinking about was off coast drilling and ANWAR. How many times did the Saudis bail jr out of bad businesses?

2. Irresponsible Bush Clueless on the Economy
http://www.progressive.org/mag/wx071508.html

With the stock market sliding down around the 11,000 marker, with unemployment up, and gas prices up, and food prices up, and home foreclosures up, Bush acknowledged on Friday, in his usual perfunctory manner, that “these are tough economic times for the American citizens.”

But what does he know?

4. 4 to 5 smackers a gallon is why.
The rats are jumping out of credit and stocks and into gubmint no bid contracts and commodities. Bushie wants to set the stage for his friends to wipe up on hopefully $10 gas while it lasts. Sure they have to trash America to get it, but China is still there.
